"Prompt: Who is one person you think God put into your life for a reason (and what is that reason?)"

That is a difficult question because I believe God puts a lot of people in my life for a lot of reasons. However, I would tend to go with a peer support specialist at the Clarksburg VA in Clarksburg, WV. I say him because he told me about the place I am now living and working. He started the original paperwork to get me here. Since he did that God has used me as chaplain since the beginning of the pandemic. This place had little spiritual pulse when I got here. If there had been no chaplain for the pandemic it would have died all together spiritually. God placed me here to encourage it and keep it going.

Soldier and His Family   (13+) About a Soldier who has a family #2249921 by Beacon's Light

Since it 4th of July this weekend, write about this poem in your entry this weekend."

I know many soldiers who have left their families behind to trudge off to war. It is their courage that gives all these athletes the right to kneel at the singing of the national anthem. If they can't stand on their legs during the National Anthem, then why don't they donate their legs to some soldier who lost his in combat!
