It Can't Be February...

I cannot believe that January is gone and...with all the activities at home and work picking up...I hardly noticed it. This is an challenging year for us here at NDPTF. With the elections behind us and many changes coming our way it just gives us more reasons to pray for our nation and her leaders (no matter which side of the fence you are on).
With the overwhelming problems that face us...and so many troops deployed around the world... wouldn't it be great if we could have more events at the military bases across the country and even some events done by/for our troops right where they are serving? Last year there were several such military events (even in Iraq). You could arrange a large prayer event at your base or have a couple guys gathered around in just a few minutes of heartfelt prayer. The size of the event doesn't matter...the prayer does.
When you have a couple of minutes, browse our store at http://www.nationaldayofprayer.org/ and take a look at the many items we have available to assist you with your event. There are many downloads as well. If you need more direction or just want to talk to someone regarding what kind of a gathering you want to have, you will find everything you need (including a way to contact your State Coordinator) on our site.
God is looking for good men and women to stand at the wall on behalf of our Nation. Ezekiel 22:30 He tells us that if we ask, we will receive. Matthew 23:37.
Will you join us this year in lifting our beloved country up to the Lord in confidence of what He will do?

I just found your blog while on the NDPTF website. I notice that you have a son in the military. I have a son in the military also. He is currently serving in Iraq. I appreciate your comments & hope to continue following your blog.

I will include your son in my prayers for our military. What is his name and when will he be coming home?
Nathan (my son) is a Marine and has not left for his first real deployment yet. They have been in Okinawa as well as Korea and P.I.
I believe they are scheduled to deploy to the Mid East sometime in the Fall tenatively.
Have you had time to look at the mlitary page? We are able to send along free mlitary devotionals to you to send along to your son. If you would like a few, please go to the page and then click to order. There is no charge to send them to you at this point.

Carol,
My son's name is Luke. At this point they are scheduled to come home in December. I have seen the military page. I already requested the devotional & received it from you. I will be sending on to Luke soon.

Is Luke still scheduled to come home in December? I know you will be happy to have him home for Christmas.
We are praying for our military here at NDPTF and I have a list of requests that I take home with me for my quiet time as well.
Hang in there and know that God is with Luke and walking the journey with him.

I don't know for sure when Luke will return. Some days it's Dec., some days Nov. Once it was Oct.! I guess he'll be back when the plane he's on lands on American soil! :)
