I thought we could all use an "uplift" to our day. What a wonderful advertisement based on true events...
Even in War, we can find "Peace"...

Quote :
100 years ago, on the Christmas Eve of 1914, a series of sporadic, unofficial truces spread across the front lines of those fighting in the trenches of World War One.

That moving moment is documented in a new advert by Sainsbury’s, a large supermarket chain in the U.K.

The cinematic masterpiece features soldiers cautiously abandon their trenches and exchange greetings with those with whom they had been fighting. In the nearly four-minute ad, the two sides compete in a soccer match before the soldiers walk back into their trenches and pull out gifts each had exchanged.

What a beautiful story, it brings a tear to your eye. We send men out to k**l each other, and they face (with the exception of ISIS, or other Jihadists) young men just like them who would rather be home with family. War IS hell.

Isn't it BearK and yes, tears it does bring, yet warms the heart in glory of knowing humanity prevails~~~

Thank You for watching it.. And yes, other than the monsters of this era, we can still hope when seeing this reminder.. ;)

I copied it and sent it out to friends and family on my email list. I also watched the story behind it.

It's sad how men are sent out to k**l each other. The big wigs who send them, I wonder if they ever suffer. Those with a conscience - but today, greed rules.

How I look forward to Jesus return, now that will be Christmas.

lindajoy Loc: right here with you....

Oh how nice~~I hope they enjoy it as much....Jesus return~~always with us, it is We whom forget that...His return to come the epitome of true glory, Amen!

Your a beautiful soul, Ms. BearK~~

PS>>I've often said those "big wigs" that invite the war should be the ones to fight with each other, last one standing rules it, not everyone else!!

My son didn't have a Christmas dinner in 2012, Bagram was under mortar fire all day, a little Merry Muslim Christmas from the Taliban. He and I exchanged several emails and, I wonder if he knew how worried my poor mind really was? I never told his mother the situation until much later, because I didn't have anything in me to give after being such a confident dad for my kid all day. That is one holiday that I feel blessed because he came to no harm but, wished he was home opening gifts with us just the same.

For all these young people away this Christmas I give them my heartfelt prayers and thanks for what they do.

Service Man’s Prayer by Edwin De Hoff

Dear Savior, I have left my home
And all whom I hold dear.
Guide me with Thy loving hand
And be Thou ever near.

So let me live from day to day,
In steadfast love for Thee
That I may never grieve their hearts,
That pray at home for me.

Keep me from every harm and sin
That I may never roam,
From Thy pure word, which I have learned
In my dear Christian home.

Grant me success in all I do
If Thou will have it come
But let me value more than this,
My Christian faith and home.

Amen and thank you linda!
