I don’t comment often, and one day I’d love to meet you – but I so appreciate your transparent authenticity as you share your journey. I’ve been following here off and on for a few years (since you found me on YLCF), and I am blessed to watch from afar how you carry your heart before the Lord and before others. As a wife and mother of three, I can’t fathom how painful this is for you right now, but I can only imagine how beautiful a work the Lord must be doing in your heart through it all. You are a bright and shining lamp in the darkness, Ashleigh, and your life is bringing glory to Jesus as you worship Him in the suffering.

Godspeed to your beloved one. I pray that he may go with the Spirit of God resting upon him, and that he may return quickly and safely to your arms. May this year go by swiftly and strengthen your heart as you lean on your eternal Husband, Jesus Christ. Praying for your family, dear sister in the Lord,

From a fellow military wife ~

tears & hugs

Dear Lord,

Hold them Lord ~ hold them. Please surround John with protection, Ashleigh with comfort and peace and the boys with all the Father’s love that you graciously give. Thank you for each of them and for their sacrifices. May this time apart seem as but a day. Thank you, Jesus.

Amen.

I don’t really have words to express my feelings of gratitude to you and your family. I am so sorry it has to be this way.

I made the mistake of reading all the comments before I wrote this… and now tears are streaming down my face. Goodbyes are never ever easy. Esp. with someone you love with all your heart and soul!
Praying for him, praying for you and the boys.

I know all too well those goodbyes…You and your family will be in my prayers. From one military wife to another, thank you for being so brave and so supportive to your hero. I survive my trials knowing that other woman as you are living the same life I am. God bless you for your own hero uniform. =) I will keep your little ones close to heart and in my constant prayers, they too will be blessed. God Bless.

My heart sank when I saw the picture.

Thank you for all you have been through, are going through and will go through to allow your husband to serve the USA.
