Dear Deployment...

Here we are yet again, for a third time. You just can't seem to understand that no matter how hard you try you can not and will not beat my family down. I'm not sure why you continue to try to get the best of us when clearly you are in for yet another disappointment. Don't you see that God is on our side and no matter how many times you try, He will never let you win. While you are sending my husband away for yet another tour away from his family, God is still going with him and all the while God will be here with us too. You can't pull anything over on our God. He's watching you with diligent eyes and he's caring for my family with more love than you could ever know. God is using the very circumstances that you are using to try to break us, to make us stronger and to further His Kingdom. He will prevail in His plans, for no one is stronger than our God. While I am certainly not a fan of you, Mr. Deployment, I want to say thank you for giving us this opportunity to draw closer to God through this experience. You can rest assured that no matter how hard you try you can't break us and God will get us through the hard times we are about to face because of you.

Sincerely,
A Proud, Devoted Army Wife
