Psalm 130
Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!
Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.
If you, O Lord, kept a record of sins,
Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with you,
therefore you are feared.
I wait for the Lord,
My soul waits,
and in his word I hope;
My soul longs for the Lord
More than watchmen for the morning...
It would behoove every American, every day, to pause and remember at what staggering cost our comforts and freedoms are secured.
God bless and protect our brave troops in harm's way. There is no greater love than theirs.
(Jn 15:13)
