Shield of Faith: Devotions for Military FamiliesSample

## I Will Give You Peace This unpredictable world in which we live makes it very difficult not to be anxious or worried about things. Added to the everyday stress of life, military families have unique struggles—deployments, moves, kids changing schools, constantly making new friends, and much more. It’s easy to become overwhelmed or discouraged when your life is always in transition. But you can feel comfort and peace by bringing your praise, pleadings, and requests to God. You don’t have to live in fear or anxiety about what’s to come for your family because trusting God with a heart of thanksgiving despite life’s unpredictability will help you move forward in unity with one another through times of transition and uncertainty. Dear God, thank you for the peace and comfort I can have by simply praying to you. Thank you for always watching over us and for being a God we can trust. Please help thankful hearts unify our family, and please take away any anxious thoughts or feelings about our current situation.
