"Take A Moment..."

... During the hustle and bustle and 'stress' of getting ready for Christmas, TO THINK ABOUT OUR TROOPS FIGHTING IN AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ. 

Even those deployed and away from their families, they may not be in Iraq or Afghanistan but THEY ARE deployed, doing their job and AWAY FROM THEIR LOVED ONES THIS HOLIDAY. 

Take a moment to say a prayer for them, they are FIGHTING & PROTECTING YOU!

Camouflage And Christmas Lights by Rodney Carrington

Another Year has come and gone,
And I'm still here holdin' on,
To this rifle and a picture of my kids,
They're sayin' its a holiday,
Sure as hell don't feel that way,
I don't think Jesus meant for it to be like this.

A paper star on a plastic tree
Cotton snow in a manger scene
We do the best we can to make it feel like home.
Turkey dinner on paper plates
Sargent bows his head to pray
Boombox playin' silent night
Camouflage and Christmas Lights.

There probably up on the hill by now
Bundled up and sleddin' down
Catchin' snowflakes on the edge of their tongues
Standin' up at the top would be
The prettiest girl I've ever seen
Whispering a quiet prayer for all of us.

A paper star on a plastic tree
Cotton snow in a manger scene
We do the best we can to make it feel like home.
Turkey dinner on paper plates
Sargent bows his head to pray
Boombox playin' silent night
Camouflage and Christmas Lights.

Some say I'm a hero
But I'm just a Dad
Who's trying to protect
The most precious thing I have
Someday I'll be home again
And our world will be right
But for tonight

A paper star on a plastic tree
Cotton snow in a manger scene
We do the best we can to make it feel like home.
Turkey dinner on paper plates
Sargent bows his head to pray
Thank God it's a silent night
Camouflage and Christmas Lights.

Merry Christmas to all those service members away from their families this Holiday Season. Thank you for what you do.
