Hello World!

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God."  --2 Corinthians 1:3-4

As a Marine Wife, and a Platoon Sgt's wife, I often find myself in interesting situations that cause me to see the hurt in others' lives.  I see or hear about the pain that is afflicting those around me, and I pray, but I wonder and ask God if there is anything else I could do...something more hands on.  Something that will both glorify Him and something that will directly, quickly offer comfort and hope to those hurting individuals.  This is that comfort. Here I will share the message of God's hope and about His grace and mercy.

Here, on my blog, I will be posting about how I am not just surviving, but thriving while my husband and I face, and go through, a 13 month deployment.  This is where I will post the Scriptures that most touch me, and those that I feel that God is directing me to share. Here is where I will be comforting those that are in trouble or hurting just as God has and is comforting me.  

Praise His Holy Name!
