Soldiers.
They fight for us.
Some of them die for us.
Some of them give up so much that the only thing left is a silver ball chain.
This chain holds a dog tag which serves as identification. It has the soldier’s name, an identification code, blood type, and religion.
A soldier.
That\'s what I am.
I am fighting for everyone.
Not for a country, but for a cause.
I am part of Tzivos Hashem, The Army of Hashem (G-d).
My weapons are Mitzvos (good deeds), Tzedakah (charity), and Tefillah (prayer).
I am part of the army fighting against all the evil inclinations lingering inside us.
We are dispelling darkness with the light of our good deeds.
I too have a tag.
Mine too serves to identify.
But it does so much more than just that.
It reminds me who I am, who I am fighting for, and how to keep on fighting.
“Be courageous because Hashem G-d is with you”.
Each soldier in Hashem’s (G-d’s) army knows this.
He is with us through all the ups and downs.
He is with us in the good times and the bad.
Knowing that He is with us helps us get back up again.
He is with us all the time.
He is with us anywhere we may fight.
