The strongest people are those who fight battles no one else sees, who love beyond other's faults, who cry behind closed doors.

Chief Barber,
You have done too much, being a part of too many things, affected too many lives, and have far too many people getting your back to worry about this. All of your Brothers and Sisters are willing to send you prayers, positive energy, good Karma, and best alcohol to help you through this.
We got you, Chief.

I know God has his back on everything, but every once in awhile He's sends an angel to motivate someone who needs it. Usually it's a Sergeant Major, but this LT was written off, and an "Angel" with four stars yelled CURRAHEE!! For you Sir, I hope this gets to you. I don't know you or what unit you were in, but I believe in luck the same way I believe in God and the Army. CURRAHEE!!!!! Now get up and lets kick some ass.

Jesus,
With just one touch from your Almighty creative hand,
You have healed the sick and raised the dead.
How amazing is your Lordship over all the earth,
How powerful is your redeeming love.
How great was your sacrifice to go before us and bring forgiveness and hope.
By your stripes I ask for healing.
Standing within your reign and rule I ask for restoration.
May life and wellness grow in fullness until it overflows.

Amen.
