Medals Above My Heart, a beautiful gift book, is an inspirational collection of devotions for military wives, gleaned from the authors' own experiences as military wives. Medals are received for accomplishments, and they become symbols of experience---you can look at the uniform of someone in the military and know where he has been and what he has done. Like the military wives of the past, you experience challenges that stretch your physical, emotional, and spiritual resources. While it is an honor to serve your soldier, airman, marine, or sailor as he defends the freedom of America, it is not without sacrifice. And while no military service medals are handed out to military wives for their bravery, gallantry, heroism, or exceptional service, the rewards are greater than any medal could display. The life of the military wife is one that reaps exceptional benefits through personal character and leadership development, adventure, relationships, and opportunities for service. Your husband wears his medals on his uniform, but you wear medals over your heart. Through these devotions, may you be blessed as you: See more clearly God's hand at work in and through your lifeRealize the privilege and honor it is to be part of the military cultureSee the practicality and personal application of God's Word in the everyday happenings of military lifeRecognize the joy of trusting God to use the unique experiences military life brings to develop you into the godly woman He desires you to be
