"A soldier doesn't fight because he hates what is in front of him. A soldier fights because he loves what he left behind." - unknown

"God is our refuge and strength. He will protect us and make us strong" (ps 46:1). For those who will fly today, for those who are there now, and for those who will soon join the fight, Lord, shield them from all evil, strengthen their hearts, and bring them home safely.

Promises: A Give-Away!

It's here! 



In celebration of our growing Facebook Fan page I am giving away a set of Promises prints. They are sized 10x13 and are ready to frame. . These prints cannot be reproduced or sold. 

If you win and you do not belong to the Army branch, I WILL make prints that apply to you i.e. "A Sailor's Promise," "An Airman's Promise," "A Marine's Promise," etc. 

There are multiple ways to enter:

1. Leave a comment below saying why you want to win.
2. Share The Give-Away on Facebook and tag @To Love A Soldier in the post. Then, Leave a comment here saying you did so that it adds to the count. (You must be a Facebook fan to do so). 
3. Tweet about it and tag #toloveasoldier. Leave a comment here saying you did so.
4. Blog about it! Leave the link to your post in the comments. 
5. If you become a public follower (or already are) leave a comment below.

5 ways to enter! 

Rules and important side notes:

You must be 18 years or older to enter. 
This is open to service members, spouses, family members, and even just good friends of them who want to give a great gift. : )
I WILL ship internationally. If the original winner belongs to a different nation's military, I will select an additional winner belonging to the American military. (So there may be two winners).
The give-away begins Monday November 7th at 0745 mountain time and ends Monday November 14th at 1000 mountain time.
The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced November 15th.
Be sure to leave your FULL NAME if you respond anonymously. I will not have a way of contacting you, so I must have your full name to announce the winner.

    I'm totally a follower, and on facebook, and I even wrote a non-post about Promises today! http://kimberleymills.blogspot.com/2011/11/post-not-even-written-by-me.html

    Why I want to win, I guess cause it's cute, though you might not be super into shipping it to Canada. But I keep checking to see if you are selling them on etsy or something, cause I think it would be beautiful gifts too!

    I would like to win this because not only does this remind me of my dad, retired submariner for US Navy, but also because it reminds me of the life I am building with my boyfriend, Soldier for the US Army.

    Wow this is a wonderful giveaway!

    I would absolutely LOVE these prints to look at every day on my wall as a constant reminder of why my boyfriend an I go through the seperation and dedicate ourselves to the army life. It would also be a lovely surprise for when he returns from deployment in approximately 4 months.

    I even looked these up to see if prints already existed because they are so beautiful and would create a lovely touch to our home.

    These prints would love amazing framed beside my husbands Guard Memorabilia. We have a framed professional picture of him beside a flag, plaque and certificate for his service. What could look better? The stories you write are just too amazing to not want to frame and display!
