BOOK

I have been reading a book about the early stages of the war and the Marines who were sent into battle. This book is a great mix of passion, war and religion. Some of the events talked about in the book are so unbelievable that it takes on an almost fiction feel. While other pages brought tears to my eyes. (Real Men don’t cry. Yeah right) The concept of love for God by these Marine’s is shown in depth and very detailed in this book. It is an inspiration to all Soldiers, Sailors and Marines everywhere. It has made me want to be a better person as well as a better Christian. In a combat zone hands bloody and dirty, but their knees were bent and Marines prayed and found Christ, a coming to Christ where water from the Chaplains canteen was used to baptize the soldier into the family of God. The excitement and Peace I have felt over these past few days, are greatly because of this book. The powerful message has to be experienced not shared. So pick up a copy and read of the true heroes and of “A table in the Presence” by LT. Carey H. Cash
