Last weekend I was invited to speak at the Point Man Ministries conference in Buffalo. This Iraq veteran has a message for all combat veterans. He came home from Iraq and did not want to live anymore with the pain he carried inside his soul. He found forgiveness thru Christ and learned to forgive himself. He spoke with the soul of a poet unashamed to admit how much he was hurting so that others could see that no matter how bad things get, there is still hope to heal.
The number of military suicides goes up and up but this veteran is not only a survivor, he is helping others to come out of the darkness of pain and into a new world of healing with hope and love. There is no reason of what we're seeing today if they all have what they need to survive coming home from combat. This Iraq veteran and leader of a Point Man Ministries Combat Outpost proves there is a way to walk in the light again and live still watching the backs of his brothers the same way he did in Iraq.
