Gifts That God Gives
I was up at Walter Reed visiting one of my troops today and I saw something wonderful in the hallway.
There was a young man in a wheelchair. His left leg was amputated just above the knee. His tall slender dark haired wife was standing over him as he cradled his newborn child in his arms. I was observant enough to know that I was seeing something remarkable. I wanted to stop and hug them, tell them to love and look out for each other and express my best wishes, but it would have been an imposition on such a intimate moment.
A man who has given much on behalf of many, a woman who has given love and support to her husband the warrior, and a child that is a gift from God. I don't know them, but I wish them all the best that life has to offer. May God bestow peace and prosperity upon this little family.
