I expect that you have a few or more physical scars and probably several hidden scars from mental, emotional to psychological wounds Robert.
I pray that you and I are blessed by the LORD with an increase in the fruit of the Spirit: love, joy, self-control and patience as HE heals us from our physical scars and hidden scars, my brother-in-Christ Maj Robert Thornton.
Thank YOU, dear God for YOUR atonement on the cross which is the critical path to salvation for any and all who sincerely seek YOU. The scars of YOUR crucifixion convinced Timothy that YOU had risen from the dead.
LORD I pray that YOU guide the mind and hands of each person caring, treating, operating on, and providing post-operative care of each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters, their family members and close friends.
I pray patients in the military hospitals and VA Medical Centers are each treated respectfully along with any family members and friend visiting them.
I pray for wisdom, compassion and skill for each medical professional treating patients in in-patient and out-patient facilities especially in pediatric and geriatric facilities.
I pray for parents whose spouse and/or children have been injured. I pray for peace, joy, comfort and wisdom for each parent as they tend to their spouse and children who have injured. I pray that YOU heal as many of theses children to YOUR glory.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters comprehends the eternal value of persecution as we stand up for the faith in YOU dear God.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well Tuesday night.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs None of us get through life without trials. It is how we face them and deal with them that define us as human beings. Some run, some try to hide while others seem to relish the challenges.

Man:
I'm more than that, I know I am, at least, I think I must be.
Inner Man:
There you go man, keep as cool as you can.
Face piles
And piles
Of trials
With smiles.
It riles them to believe
that you perceive
the web they weave.
And keep on thinking free.
-From In the Beginning by the Moody Blues, On the Threshold of a Dream album
