It's Friday, R U wearing red??

It is friday, are you wearing red? There is a trend begining to form to wear red on fridays. It is a sign of support for our troops. I heard about it a while ago and began to look it up, it started with some military wives wanting to show support, and it just began to grow. I try to wear red on fridays as much as possible. Even for clinical i where my red scrubs. My supprt however is more than just wearing a certain t-shirt, i pray for those troops currently on tour, and those prepareing to go. I talked with a friend tonight who is currently in Afghanistan and the strories he told broke my heart. He is shot at DAILY, and in the 2 months that he has been there he has already lost fellow soliders, friends. I know more going over this winter, so yes it is personal for me, but come on these men and women deserve our support weither we know them or not. Each one is a son , a father, wife or friend. Lets keep em in our prayers!

Ready to Serve

That was the subject line to the email i sent to Global Partners. I felt impressed to email them tonight and inquire about possible opportunities for me to serve this summer. I talked with my sister the other night about the whole thing and how i was waiting on God to tell me when and where. I believe it was He who lead me to email GP and we will wait to see what becomes of it. You my e-audience may or may not know this but i have a huge desire to go over seas, to help those who are less fortunate then I am, to use the talent God gave me and better the world he created, even if that means going to some remote area, thats hot, and sticky, with bad water, and weird food. I am so fortunate to live in North America, and i think sometimes we forget just how lucky we are. Any way i am going to sign off, have a great night all.
