Losing Sleep...

Have you ever lost sleep because your mind wouldn't stop?  I bet anyone reading this could say, "Yes!" to that question.  It just happens.  I had one of those nights again...  With my son in a war zone it happens waaaaaaay to much.  I think I've lost more sleep, gained more weight and added to my grey hair more in the last 9 months than I ever have before...ugh.  Thank God for Loreal and Revlon!

I'm just being honest.  Thats what you will get when you come here...Kim being honest about what she is thinking, feeling and going through as a military mom.  I want CMMU to be an honest place where military moms can come and share their hearts regarding their children in the military.  I also think it would be cool if it was a place for family members to share their hearts as well...not just moms.

So despite my faith in the Creator of the Universe, His Son Jesus Christ, and our Helper the Holy Spirit, I still lose sleep.  The enemy is real and evil is present.  Maqtada al-Sadr, the Shi'a Cleric, is a prime example of what I'm talking about (now remember, these are my opinions). You may or may not agree with me, but I think he is Evil in the flesh.  He threatens the safety of my son, and maybe your military loved one as well, and that makes me mad.  He threatens the people of Iraq and that makes me mad.  He threatens peace and freedom and that makes me mad.  Wow, I sound mad don't I?  Deep sigh.........

Therefore I lose sleep...I cry...and I pray like I've never prayed before.

Will you join me in agreement TODAY, as we pray for the safety of our military children?

At the bottom of the blog is Psalm 91.  It has a blank space where you can easily insert your child's name, their unit, their battle buddies names as you pray through the word of God.  His word is living and active and I intend to remind God of what He said on behalf of the safety of our military.  Will you join me today?

Many blessings and restful sleep to all,

Kim
