We must pray for our leaders and that all heads of governments, strive for peace in our world. If only we would obey God's commandments and live in harmony as He directs. When war is unavoidable, citizens should not blame their soldiers. War and its many horrors result from flawed politics and failed diplomacy. It is not caused by protectors of the peace.
War is a circumstance beyond the common soldiers control.
All soldiers provide national defense and will lay down their lives for their God, family, friends and country. Do not despise them for their duties and beliefs. They would lay down their lives, gladly, if only their child, their soldier, could survive. They, too, made a supreme sacrifice. I firmly believe we should remember, always, those who lost their life to battle.
