Dear Lord, be with my soldier son every step of his deployment. Give him the strength and courage to do the duties asked of him and his fellow comrades. Shield them all from danger and give them comfort when needed. Bring them home healthy and safely to the arms of their loving families. Let them know that they are never alone, for you are in step with them at all times. Be their forever protector each and every day. Amen
Return to A Soldiers Prayer
Your prayer was so heart felt. My son is a new recruit. I am so proud of him but I am also so frightened. God Bless xxxxx
I copied your beautiful prayer for your son. I changed it to read ‘grandson’. as my first grandson of 16 grandchildren is now in Afghanistan . He is a medic and we are so very proud of him and thanking you for your prayer. I will say it everyday.
I copied your prayer and made adjustments to accommodate to my sons deployment. I am very greatful for helping me to create a prayer for my son. Sometimes its not easy to come to terms and words to say to those who we cherish in our hearts being in harms way and asking the Lord for his protection. Thank you.
Thank you for this. I too, customized this to send to my son. He leaves tomorrow for 9 months. I hope I will have the stamina, patience, and courage that I hear from all of you. God bless all our soldiers!
