A Band of Brothers

We all need a group of people in our lives who will walk with us and speak truth into our lives. Many times we can get so caught in our own lives that we can not see our lives in the true perspective. I am so blessed to have many such friends who know me and have walked with me. Without them my life would be a much darker place. This poem is dedicated to my "Band of Brothers" They make me a better Husband, father and person. To all of you I am grateful.

A Band of Brothers
True friends of my heart
Each of us different
Yet united by the One.

We fight for each other
No man left behind
Though wounded and broken
Together we fight.

God is our Banner
Under Him we unite
His strength if does fill us
As we fight for our lives.

Though foes come against me
Though the night can be dark
My men they are with me
And fight for my heart.

To God I am grateful
His love he has shown
By sending my brother
So I don't walk alone.
