The Strong Arm of the USA

Like a "city set on a hill" these United States were born. For all the faults of which we are aware (and many of which we likely are not aware), for all the mistakes we have made, for all the selfishness, greed and personal ambitions we've seen in our selves and our leaders, yet God bless the USA.

When I heard about the Haitian earthquake, then heard about the massive relief effort the US military was mounting, I was in tears. Once again, the God-given strength of the US military is being used for good, for rescuing the weak, for protecting the helpless, yes, for ... good.

Despite the mistakes we've made and the terrible thing war is and how much we hate that terrible evil, yet the US military is more often than not used to maintain peace, to keep order, to promote health, to rescue, to protect those who can not protect themselves. "Peace is our profession" as it says on the main gate of Fort Carson, Colorado.

God shed His grace on thee, America. Thank the Lord for the US military.
