IDOK FOR MONDAY, MAY 26, 2008 – MEMORIAL DAY
I am late today and shall be brief.
This prayer request came yesterday – forgive my delay. It’s hard to believe but I did not power up the computer yesterday.
Brad came in at church & sat beside me. He had just gotten off the phone W/Hawk. It’s ‘unofficial’ but one of his guys that extended for 6 months in Afghanistan was killed. I totally lost it & left church. Frank had the morning prayer & had to lock the outside doors. He didn’t have a clue where I was. Since coming home I’ve been switching between Fox news, CNN, & the others. CNN ran a line about one killed. I haven’t talked to Hawk. Jodi’s brother & his family are here for the weekend & they’ve all gone to church W/her family. I don’t know any details but please remember this family.
Abba, this is not the news any family would want on Memorial Day Weekend or any other weekend. And Holy Spirit we are counting on You to console and undergird this family and friends of this dearly loved Soldier. We are made quiet by this and we pray You will quiet the souls of these hurting so deeply. Many have fallen over the years since America began and while we are grateful for freedom, we know it comes at a precious price and You know fully well and better than we the price for freedom. We are grateful that You have placed us here in these United States and even as I speak that I think we are not united, not in a way that is holy and healthy. Forgive us Abba and bring us to holiness. Forgive America and give her space and grace to repent. As we remember today those who have given life and blood for this Country, comfort us and do a work in our hearts that makes their sacrifice not in vain. And Lord Jesus even more than that move and anoint us to REMEMBER Your Holy and Everlasting Sacrifice for Eternal Freedom and to live holy lives here and now as we wait for You to return for us. And we pray now for our IDOK Troops today, that You will encourage them, protect them in mind and body and spirit. I pray too today for each and every IDOK and their families, my desire and petition for each is to REMEMBER YOU. To remember that Your Body was broken and Your Blood was Shed for us to be free from sin and the wage of eternal death. I pray that not only will we remember You but that we will denounce pride and any other sin that is keeping us from living in holiness. Thank You for dying and living for us Lord Jesus; convince us to do likewise, to die to self and live through You. Amen and amen. Kevin M and Family. Darlene. Rachel. Allison. Kinard Family.

Song by Mark Shultz

In a Bible cracked and faded by the years
Remember me
In a sanctuary filled with silent prayers
CHORUS:
And age to age
And heart to heart
Bound by grace and peace
Child of wonder, Child of God
I’ll remember you
Remember Me
Remember me
When the color of the sunset fills the sky
Remember me
When you pray and the tears of joy
Fall from your eyes
CHORUS
Remember me
When the children leave
Their Sunday school with smiles
Remember me
When they’re old enough to teach
Old enough to preach
Old enough to leave
CHORUS
Age to age and heart to heart
Child of wonder child of God
Remember me
Age to age and heart to heart
Child of wonder child of God
