HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON

GARMENT OF PRAISE

HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON

Welcome to Garment of Praise ~ patriotic tributes.

With American troops still facing daily dangers in

Iraq and other places in the world, it is my desire to

pay tribute to them.

And, not only them, but those who served their

country well; either still living or gone on "Home"

to glory.

Our prayers continue for the brave troops still

under fire;   USA troops and their allies, as well as,

those peoples in lands where wars are raging.

OH, there is a high price for FREEDOM, just ask

the families whose loved ones have paid the

ultimate price.   Let us remember these families

in our prayers, as well.

God's TRUTH IS marching on:   JESUS CHRIST,

THE TRUTH ~ THE LIFE ~ THE WAY !

May our Father cause HIM to be a reality in

your lives, is my prayer.    Love in Jesus, Maryxo

Thank you, sweet Triena:-)

How poignant, this lil' lad paying tribute

by his patriotic salute:-)

This touches my heart !

The following photos were recently

taken of our troops in Iraq.

May angels surround each one of

them; protect them from all harm,

is the cry of my heart!

GOD ~ FAMILY ~ COUNTRY

Let us all strive to keep our priorities

in order ~ Love in Jesus, Maryxo

My daddy, Dock Franklin Carter, II

beloved by his entire family plus all

friends & loved ones now resides in Heaven.

My daddy was practicing law when

the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.

Immediately he enlisted in

The United States Marine Corp and

departed for Camp Pendleton, California

for boot camp.

Daddy's departure left our mother,

my brother, Dock and me in a state of

grief. I recall for the first few weeks

brother & I slept with mother each

night; often crying ourselves to sleep.

My daddy fought on Iwo Jima and

was there the day our troops raised

the "Old Glory". (see picture below)

Daddy didn't talk about his war

experiences in the presence of my

brother or me. I am sure because what

he had to relate was much too traumatic

for small children's ears.

Daddy has since gone to be with

The Lord; homegoing in November, 1971.

Instilled in the Carter & Bowlin clans

is a deep sense of patriotism.

Down through history the men in

our fraternal, as well as, maternal

families have put their lives on the

line to protect our great nation;

to assure FREEDOM ~ LIFE ~

LIBERTY & the pursuit of happiness!

My uncles (fraternal & maternal)

Joseph B. Snodgrass ~ United States Army

Hal Burnis Stribling ~ United States Army

Our sons:

David Carter Mizrany ~ United States Air Force

United States Army

serving many years in USArmy Reserves

William Edward Mizrany ~ United States Army

82nd AIRBORNE

Our grandsons:

William Anthony Alfano ~ United States Coast Guard

Gordon Edward Mizrany ~ United States Marine Corp

Our son, David, presently serving our country

in capacity of mounted patrol officer,

Nashville Metro Police Department

Our grandson, Tony, will soon be serving our

country in capacity of law enforcement officer

with The Texas State Highway Patrol.

How blessed we are to live in a country

founded upon Godly principles. Though

many factions in our nation choose to not

only IGNORE GOD, but, do everything

within their power to undermine our

Godly heritage. Still, our Father God,

always has a remnant who will not bow

their knee to Baal. Halleluyah!

I thank HIM for including OUR family in

that Remnant. Praise His Holy Name !!!

Love in Jesus,

Maryxo

LET US NEVER FORGET THOSE WHOSE

LIVES WERE LOST THROUGH 9~11!!!

"FREEDOM"?

Is FREEDOM really worth the price

to throw God's Word back in His face . . .

For a seven~letter word that

spells our Nation's gross disgrace ~

For while we sit back on our laurels

laws are passed ~ the gavel falls . . .

Millions cheering in the background

with blatant revelry that so appalls ~

More FREEDOM for "Self~Indulgence"

to wallow in the mire of lust . . .

"GOD ~ WHO" becomes allegiance pledged

no longer heard ~ "In God We Trust" ~

And not heard the silent screams

from billions of precious tiny lips . . .

Mother's womb becomes their caskets

their blood cries out . . .but still it drips ~

Ban the Cross from government properties

the current edict spreads cross the line . . .

Protect the state from Christian influence

let man decide who is Divine ~

As Lady Liberty bows her head

tears are slipping down her face . . .

And Old Glory once waved so proudly

turns face away in sheer disgrace ~

Is THIS the FREEDOM, sweet America

our forefathers planned & writ' in blood . . .

For which many more are still dying

Godly values trampled in the flood ~

Oh, America, we have been so blessed

but remember this as we celebrate . . .

GOD still reigns upon His Throne

REPENT before it is too LATE !
