You are the first people who have ever commented on one of my “Cost of War” posts. For that I want to thank you.
One of the reasons that I publish those posts is to bring a sense of humanity to those who have died serving this cause. Each time I post them I read each name aloud, along with their age and hometown. I pray for their families, individually.
I never get very far before I get choked up and am taken back by the gravity of it all.
To have you post your loving words and memories of those you knew brings whole new meaning to their sacrifice. Thank you.
I pray you will find comfort and peace during your time of mourning. I pray that your grief will not be in vain. And I pray that the Lord’s sovereignty and love will guide us through these difficult times.
