Chaplains of the Confederacy

"My chief concern is to try to be an humble, earnest Christian." R. E. Lee

2007 Kentucky Division Chaplain’s Comments

“We poor sinners need to come back from our wanderings to seek pardon through the all-sufficient merits of our Redeemer. And we need to pray earnestly for the power of the Holy Spirit to give us a precious revival in our hearts and among the unconverted.” Robert E. Lee

In the year of our Lord 2007 let us strive to be gentler to those that anger us, more tolerant of those that seem to be intolerable, more loving to those that seem unlovable, and more thoughtful of those that seem thoughtless. Let us remember the hundreds of thousands that offered their lives in the defense of the cause which they embraced during the War Between the States. Let us all take time throughout our busy schedule and earnestly pray for those that are currently offering their lives on the alter of freedom for the cause of freedom. Let us remember one another through prayer and pray an unselfishly, as Christ prayed for us. This year we are offering a prayer list and we will be honored to offer prayer for those needing the touch of the Master's Hand. If you have a need or a situation that you don't wish to mention but want us to pray for, simply ask and we will lift up our voices to a gracious God that knows our heart's desires before we utter the words. Through all our trials and tribulations let us rejoice in that we have a risen Savior, a loving God that so loved us that he offered Himself on a rugged tree for us to have eternal bliss. Those that have stepped through the turbid vale are waiting on the other shore and our reunion will be one of such joy that we can not even fathom the emotion. This year as we reenact, let us walk with the same thoughts of our ancestors, remembering that Christ is in the Camp now as He was then. Pray for those that do not wish for us to pray openly and let us be models as the man of marble demonstrated with his Christ-like character, reflecting upon his words that, "I am nothing but a poor sinner trusting alone in Christ for my salvation." Last, but by far not the least, let us remember our great commission and led others to our Lord of Lord and King of Kings simply by our example and sharing the Word with others. It is our calling. It is our duty to follow the drum and walk the old path. For what greater joy is there than to know that you have helped another soul reach paradise. Be bold in Christ and humble in spirit as we stand watch upon the wall, looking towards God alone for guidance. Pray for Dixie.... "We are all in the hands of a kind God, who will do for us what is best, and more than we deserve, we have only to deserve more and do our duty to Him and to ourselves. May we all deserve His mercy, His care, and His protection."
