Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs We've all suffered setbacks or failures as we've gone through life; the losers quit and the winners come back stronger. That's what I do after each workshop; I review what happened and I try to figure out ways to make it better. I work especially hard on those I don't feel were helpful to the clients for one reason or another. I use those failures to grow as a professional.

I expect that by God’s grace you have come back from much in your lifetime and that you have helped others make comebacks and that you are neither judgmental nor prejudiced Charlie.
I pray that you and I trust the LORD’s prompting to assist others in need of making a comeback and that we remember that the soul of each person is created in God’s image, my sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown .
Thank you, LORD for YOUR Word. You made it clear that “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ [Matthew 5:37-39]
I lift each of YOUR adopted son and daughter to YOU dear God. I pray that YOU enable each one of us demonstrate sacrificial love to our neighbors, supervisors, employees, subordinates, coworkers, friends and family members. I pray that YOU remove any obstacle within us to allow YOUR light and love to radiate through us.
I lift YOUR adopted sons and daughters who are in hospice, hospitalized, bed-ridden, disabled, grief-stricken and those who are contagious to YOU. I pray that YOU empower them and those caring for them to make a comeback their outlook on life as YOU bless them with an increase of hope in YOU.
I lift ministries which are focused on enabling people to rise up from living on the dole and those working to reduce recidivism among prisoners by training and inspiring them to work for a living and become contributing members of society I pray for salvation for as many of these people s possible and that YOU will enable each to make a comeback to bless themselves and their families.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well Thursday night.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.
