A Fireman's Mate

Found this in one of my posts from 9 years ago.  It's worth sharing (I did not write this).  Happy Saturday!!


Dear Lord,  
I want to thank you for my husband. This wildland fireman that I love. 
Give me strength to give him support with your guidance from above. 
Make me a good wife, attentive listener, my husband's best friend. 
When I chose him I chose a fireman, and this job on which we depend. 
Lord, keep him safe when our plan's have gone awry. 
He's being sent to a vegetation fire where the brush is so dry. 
Keep the raging flames from being his final fate. 
Help me to cope with the trauma of being a Fireman's Mate.

                                                                                           AMEN.
