TTP – Vision and Leadership

[…]That’s what we do. In addition, according to Paul in his epistle to the church at Ephesus, chapter 6, verse 7, “Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men.” Yes, excellence in all we do-giving our all to each task toward performing to the absolute best of our abilities.

If, as the passage states, love is patient and kind, bears all and believes all, where was this type of love in my exchange with my friend?  My conscience, no doubt under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, drew me to the first verse of that chapter, “If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal” (1 Corinthians 13:1).

And if you ask, He will begin to heal your wounds. Then look up, and see who God has put in that place to help you choose life.

Service Separations

[…]a small group. It may be a prayer and fellowship group from church or chapel, such as your local chapter of Protestant Women of the Chapel (contact your chaplain’s office for PWOC information). It may be from the local Officers’ Christian Fellowship (OCF) group, or Christian Military Fellowship (CMF) group. It may be from some Christian friends on the same street. In my case, OCF was the one place I could go by myself and not feel like a fifth wheel! If I was discouraged and frustrated (and no one is immune from this) OCF was the place where I […]

Six Generations: 2

[…] regulars, their radio blaring, and the soldiers oblivious to the U.S. infantrymen nearby. M-60 machinegunner Carl Nichols got specific instructions from Christopher not to fire unless it was absolutely necessary. Christopher then rejoined his main element, led by Sergeant Greg Yahn, about 30 to 40 meters away. At the same time, Lieutenant Jon Shine, leading the Third Platoon, in Charlie Company, 4th Battalion, 9th Infantry Regiment (The Manchus), operating in two groups on this mission, also linked up with Sgt. Yahn when he heard about the enemy sighting. The men quickly discussed in low voices how they should handle […]

The Wounded Healer

[…]her questions and grief she made room for action by organizing and leading the Kansas City area chapter of the American Gold Star Mothers, remembrance walks, and a local veterans’ memorial to honor the sacrifices of soldiers and their families. When others in the community lost loved ones in their service to our nation, Diana was the first and arguably the most effective person rushing to their side with support. She has become a cherished friend and the community’s most productive healer to those who are alone, hurting, or suffering emotional wounds. We see in Diana what Henri Nouwen calls […]
