Pray that I do not sit on the side of the battlefield with my hands tied, shouting instructions to my children on how to fight. Rather, pray that I can stand steadfast in the midst of the bloody conflict, surrounded by the slain, fighting fiercely and tirelessly against the dragons of the day until I have beaten their numbers back. Pray that I say, "Let me show you how to hold your sword. See me at my tent tonight and I shall tell you stories of war, glory, and honor."; -- Wendy McCluney
