Remember, that each day begins with all that there is in God’s good hands. That when we are born, our first breath has us inherit all that those before us sacrificed for. Our inheritance is our country, a nation of those who choose to be free. Remember, that Life for the American Soldier is uncertain. Yet there are many who rise above the uncertain future. In so doing they embrace there love of country with courage. Prepared to say their goodbyes; all along knowing that they will never forget those that remain in waiting, nor will they be forgotten for their sacrifice. Their peace and tranquility goes forward in the spoken and written word, all with images reflected off the surface of this earth – traveling endlessly through the universe to that realm that belongs only to God. There is one, the American patriot, who loves unconditionally and for the most part has never been truly understood for he conceals his pain well. He will say to you and to me, Please “Go forward”, without me, if you must – “but I will never forget you, no matter where I am; I will always think of you and wonder how you are.” The past – the future – all are the same. There is one and one constant only that never changes. Love with all of your heart, with your entire mind, and with all of your soul; dream of all that should be, and is not, but will be, simply because you refuse not to love. I ask that you remember the American Soldier as a Patriot, one who loves his country. And so it is with us, to enshrine the goodness of all Americans symbolized upon our Altars with Holy Scripture, and our Flag. As a Chaplain I wish to recite a poem by Samuel Clements, but deliver it as a prayer for our Military Service Men and Women, who have given their last measure of devotion. Let us pray – Our Father who art in Heaven Upon every Grave, Let the Warm summer sun, Shine brightly there Let the Warm southern wind, Blow softly there. Let the Green sod above, Lie lightly there Almighty God Guide us, as we say Good night Brave hearts. Good Night. Amen.

AMERICA: The Babylon of our time?

Spirituality> I wish everything was that simple: A long time ago Jeremiah, speaking for God, warned Israel, “But if you do not listen to Me, to sanctify the Sabbath Day and to not carry a burden and enter Jerusalem’s gates on the Sabbath day, then I shall set fire to its gates, a fire that will consume the palaces of Jerusalem and not be extinguished.” (17:27) The logical implication, according to some, is that a fire burning out of control on Mt Carmel is God’s response to people violating the Sabbath. Spirituality> In the corner of a tiny kitchen is a hole drilled into the wall; a small marble has worked its way in. A four-year old child sits in the corner of that kitchen; slowly, patiently with his index finger he works at that marble that will not be extricated. But it is the mind of that child that is quietly formulating one of life’s troubling concepts.

There, near the Altar, where an Urn is destining to be, a man poorly dressed kneels. To him a sermon is dedicated. The congregation encircles him with prayer. Their Minister begins his sermon embracing the theme of weather.

By: Spirituality> When there were pelicans, enthusiastic youngsters would hook their first catch, they would forcibly hoist their manna from the sea – triggering a mad rush between men and an army of open beaks as the fish would slide and twitch with every bounce until one would win, the youngster, the pelican, or the fish escaping between slats of wood. By: Home and Family> In the dark of a disappearing forest a young boy lays dying of what is considered to be the plaque of the 20th century. By: Arts & Entertainment> Millennias of Shadow and Light It was a trip of a lifetime to a place where the cradle of civilization once flourished.
