Why Did My Son Have To Die?

A mother asked this President...  'Why did my son have to die in Iraq?' 
   
   
A mother asked this President..  'Why did my son have to die in Saudi Arabia?'
   
   
A mother asked this  President...  'Why did my son have to die in Kuwait?' 
   
   

Another mother asked this President...  'Why did my son have to die in Vietnam ?'
   
   

Another mother asked this President...
  'Why did my son have to die in Korea ?'
   
   
Another mother asked this President...  'Why did my son have to die on Iwo Jima?'

   
   

Another mother asked this President...  'Why did my son have to die on a battlefield in France ?'

   
   

Yet another mother asked this President... 'Why did my son have to die at Gettysburg?'

   
   

And yet  another mother asked this President... 'Why did my son have to die on a frozen field near Valley Forge?'


Then long, long ago, a mother asked..
  
   
'Heavenly Father...why did my Son have to die on a cross outside of Jerusalem?'

The answer is always the same, 'So that others may live and dwell in peace, happiness, & freedom.'

This was emailed to me with no author.  I thought the magnitude and the simplicity were awesome.

If you  are not willing to stand BEHIND our  troops,

Please, please feel free to stand in front of them....
   
  
ONE  FLAG, ONE LANGUAGE, ONE NATION UNDER  GOD!
