As
the war efforts are unpublished in the headlines of the evening news, so is the public
awareness of the massive growing needs of our brave warriors and their families.
With suicide in the military veteran population increasing as a result of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD),
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and depression, the troops
that are suffering are, by far, not the only sufferers.
Perhaps the least mentioned are the thousands
of children who are being left without parents, either by death or by emotional
absence. Either way, an epidemic of kids, needing to be loved, and in many
cases, re-parented, is increasing every day. We must reach them with the fact
that, though their Dads and Moms may not be with them in one way or another,
their Heavenly Father most certainly is, and He is only a prayer away!
No less devastating are those who give their
all to serve us in battle only to return to find that they cannot find jobs. Of
the many millions of troops who have served in America’s “war on terror” in Iraq
and Afghanistan, more than 2.9m have transitioned to a civilian life plagued by
high rates of homelessness, unemployment, and even substandard health care they desperately need.
