Day Fifteen of Gulf War II
Sad, very sad to see these faces of American soldiers killed in action.
There is another list of faces, which need our prayers for a safe return.
God, have mercy and bring this war to a quick end and our POWs/MIAs home safely.
My colleague, Rick Swan, has a wonderful webpage, which tells the stories of those who came home from another war, Vietnam, and the tributes to those among them who didn't. I encourage you to pay a visit.

Ecclesiastes 4:1-4, New International Version:
1 Again I looked and saw all the oppression that was taking place under the sun: I saw the tears of the oppressed- and they have no comforter; power was on the side of their oppressors- and they have no comforter.
2 And I declared that the dead, who had already died, are happier than the living, who are still alive.
3 But better than both is he who has not yet been, who has not seen the evil that is done under the sun.
4 And I saw that all labor and all achievement spring from man's envy of his neighbor. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.


In Christ,
