POW's Prayer

By: Jean Ray and L. Vancil

Father, Your own Son was a prisoner.

Condemned, he died for us.

Victorious, He returned to bring us the gift of

life everlasting.

Comfort us now in our longing for the return of the

Prisoners Of War and those Missing In Action.

Help Us Father;

Inspire us to remove the obstacles.

Give courage to those who know the truth to speak out.

Grant wisdom to the negotiators,

and compassion to the jailors.

Inspire the media to speak out as loudly

as they have in the past.

Protect those who seek in secret

and help them to succeed.

Show us the tools to do Your will.

Guard and bless those in captivity, their families,

and those who work for their release.

Let them come home soon.

Thank you Father.

Amen

Posted by Johnny Green at 9:47 AM on November 21, 2014 Medical Marijuana Policy U.S. House Representatives Earl Blumenauer (D-OR) and Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), along with ten bipartisan Congressional cosponsors introduced the “ Veterans Equal Access Act ” (VEAA) today, marking a concerted federal effort to allow our country’s veterans to become medical marijuana patients in states where it’s legal. The VEAA would simply allow Veterans Affairs (VA) physicians to discuss and recommend medical marijuana to their patients, a right enjoyed by physicians outside of the VA system. “Post traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury are just as damaging and harmful as any injuries that are visible from the outside,” said Blumenauer, the bill’s author. “Sometimes even more so because of the devastating effect they can have on a veteran’s family. We should be allowing these wounded warriors access to the medicine that will help them survive and thrive, inc...
