MY JOURNAL
I joined the US Marines as a private in January 16th 1989 and got an honorable discharge in January 16th 1993.  I was a good United States Marine but I fell into my own folly of madness as a unbeliever in LORD Jesus Christ.  I want to tell Marines that their greatest strength is not in an M16A2 Service Rifle but rather at the foundation of LORD Jesus Christ.  Jesus is our true strength not in flesh that grows weak or weapons of steal that eventually fail.  The Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak, but we can rely on the name of the LORD.  The LORD Jesus Christ is a strong tower to lean on and he is the LORD of Life.  You can't join the Marines without carring a pocket Guidians Bible.  That is the Sword of Strength.

(Joe 2:7)  They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:
(Joe 2:8)  Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded.
(Joe 2:9)  They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief.
(Joe 2:10)  The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining:
(Joe 2:11)  And the LORD shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

One day the Marines will be invincible.  Could that day arrive sooner than we think.  There is power in the blood and the closer you draw to Jesus Christ he will protect you.  This site exhorates fallen Marines because sometimes while people sleep Marines come in and take names.  Our power is in the Almighty God.  Marines you can win these wars by accepting LORD Jesus Christ into your hearts.  I was in the Marines and I know the harsh conditions you all face and you need our prayers.  So next time someone comes to honor the king of pop remember that he was only allowed to sing and do so because of what US Marines do to make this country free. 

More Marines need equipment and Bibles.  Marines need food and care packages from home.  They need your support and your love.  Instead of remembering your king of pop Michael Jackson remember Marines die too.  We may not get the fans, and the love or the honor but I am telling you when people are sleeping the US Marines are landing.  So next time a your hero dies remember the KING that one dies for, LORD Jesus Christ. 

(John 15:13)  Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

When a person does something do it well and honor the KING not the king of pop but the KING Jesus Christ with the power of reserection.  I am sorry to Michael Jackson's family but what about the families of warriors the US Marines who have fallen.  When was the last time you heard the world stop for the death of an 18 year old US Marine.  As a US Marine you may not have the honor in death that a singer has but with Jesus Christ you can have the honor of reserection.  I think we need to rethink where our honor goes.  Sometimes you  a have to take a name a big name so that our name US Marine can be remembered.  Sorry but we as Marines fall down too so don't forget the Marine Warriors that stood to keep the Country free. 

Email me to let me know how everyone is doing on the front lines and have a prayer request.
