No News - Good News?

Apologies. This blogger has had little to report. Right now the Bergdahls are committed to a prayerful rather than public response to Bowe's captivity. Consistent with their desires we again petition all to keep a prayer on your lips many times a day. God, thank you for Bowe. Please keep him safe today. Surround him with your angels. Quiet his fears. Bring him home soon. Amen. It's easy to go about lives that are busy and sometimes stressful forgetting that America has a prisoner of war whose name is never mentioned in the 24 hour news cycles of so much trivia. Sometimes there's a footnote to a thirty-minute broadcast: two soldiers die in Afghanistan. 45 this month. Names withheld. American heroes, everything to their families, essential to the freedom of ours and so many other nations, left anonymous to the viewer. But this is the world. The Apostle Paul during his life of trial and tribulation never allowed the world to move him. Acts 20:22-24 His eyes were on the promise which is Divine.
Keep the faith. Keep the prayers, and, when Bowe returns, give God the glory, for His is always the Good News.
