Our Hero
Joshua was our hero.
He did not set out to be a hero.
He became a hero when he enlisted in the Marines and obeyed those that
had control of his military service. He proudly
went to
When Josh was still in school he was waiting for
graduation so he could enlist in the service.
During our Youth Group meetings, during our special prayer time,
requests were given and he always requested prayer for his girlfriend and their
unborn son, besides other requests for our men in military. Then during prayer time the youth would pair
up with another and pray together for a particular request per couple. Josh and Tasha
would pray together for each other and their families.
After Josh left, his name was put on our Intercessory
Prayer list. The week he died we were
praying for his safety, but more so, that he would maintain his relationship
with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Josh will be greatly missed. He will always be our hero. Not just because he stood in defense of his
country, but because he stood in defense of right that he learned through his
Savior, Jesus Christ.
One thing Joshua had in common with Jesus is their
name. Joshua is a Hebrew name and that
name in Greek is Jesus. Another thing
they had in common is that they both gave their lives for others. Josh gave his life for freedom and his
country. Jesus gave his life for the entire
world. Today Josh is with his Hero.
