The Army Wife’s Prayer

Dear Lord,

Give me the greatness of heart to see the difference between duty and his love for me. Give me understanding that I may know, when duty calls him he must go. Give me a task to do each day, to fill the time when he’s away. And Lord, when he’s in a foreign land, keep him safe in your loving hand. And Lord, when duty is in the field, please protect him and be his shield. And Lord, when deployment is so long, please stay with me and keep me strong.

Amen.

The Army Wife’s Prayer is beautiful. Thank you for posting it. I join my prayers with yours, that when delpoyment is long that you feel the arm of the Lord around you and be comforted knowing His arm is also upon your husband. May He meet every need of your entire family. Please…be reminded that many of us pray for the men and women in uniform AND thier families on a daily basis.
