Good Sunday morning Col Burroughs and posse. Hope all is well for all with prayers for our brothers and sisters recovering from illnesses and surgeries.
Have you ever worked really hard to avoid something only to have it happen? Or perhaps you have worked hard for something and yet, it didn't happen. Sometimes things are just meant to be or they are not. Or perhaps the timing is wrong (that's the one that happens to me most often). What can you do? Have faith that it will all work out and keep striving for the best outcome. Sometimes that's tough to handle but if you have faith and courage, it usually works out in the end.

GySgt Thomas Vick - We are always tested in our lives. Some don't try to excel. they don't want to take advantage of the good things in life to make it better. However, when we want to advance in our lives we are happier then the ones that are struggling to even exist. Be blessed . thank you for the post

I expect you have a strong foundation of character and that you are respected as a leader in family, position, among friends and in your avocation. No doubt your trustworthiness, honesty and courage of convictions is a blessing to many other people – especially those you have and currently lead. I hope and pray that you and I demonstrate respect to each person we interact with. LORD cleanse us from corrupt bias and prejudice based on external characteristics of people. ‘Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.’ [Romans 12:10-13 ESV] my sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.
Thank YOU, LORD for sanctification of each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters in YOUR perfect sequencing and timing. YOU are perfect and YOU love each of us perfectly. YOU always have our best at heart and YOU change our soul into the perfect reflection of YOUR image. YOU tolerate our foibles and YOU enable us to be attracted to opposites. Sadly behavior, speech, and appearance that attracted us in the first place sometimes repels us. I pray for spiritual maturity for each of us. Enable us to demonstrate love and avoid focusing on changing others into the image we have in mind for them. ‘For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.’ [Jeremiah 29:11-13 ESV]
I pray for humility, eyes to see as YOU see people, and a strong inclination towards selfless service for each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer or listens to it. Empower and enable us to love those YOU bring across our path by demonstration of YOUR love supplemented with words if necessary. I pray for an increase of the fruit of the Spirit love and self-control for each of us. Help us to pray for our neighbors and even our enemies to develop compassion for them. 'Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.' [1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ESV]
LORD I pray that YOU do what is necessary to change the minds of elected and appointed officials who are pro-induced abortion, pro-euthanasia, and biased against individuals based on their skin color, social standing, and or heritage. I lift POTUS Joe Biden and his wife Jill, VPOTUS Kamala Harris and her husband Douglas Craig Emhoff to YOU and pray that YOU bless them with wisdom which begins with the fear of the LORD and compassion for the pre-born. 'For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.' [Psalm 139:13-14a ESV]
I pray that you and your family members slept well Sunday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Monday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Good “Sunday!” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from a beautiful wispy clouded day here in the Southwest corner of the Greater Boston area... and headed down to the Cape Cod Canal to soak up some sun, boats, and people enjoying a Sunday afternoon...
Today is: “Meant to Be Day!”
MY PERSONAL QUOTE:
"If it is meant to be, it will be, and if it is not meant to be it won't..." Kerry F. Harkins - May 23, 2021
"The game is meant to be fun." - Jack Nicklaus
"I think our life is a journey, and we make mistakes, and it's how we learn from those mistakes and rebound from those mistakes that sets us on the path that we're meant to be on." - Jay Ellis
"Success means having the courage, the determination, and the will to become the person you believe you were meant to be." - George A. Sheehan
"Learning lessons is a little like reaching maturity. You're not suddenly more happy, wealthy, or powerful, but you understand the world around you better, and you're at peace with yourself. Learning life's lessons is not about making your life perfect, but about seeing life as it was meant to be." - Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
...and just if it is meant to be understand this my Brothers and Sisters:
"If you are meant to be a leader, you lead when you have to, you see much more than you do, and you change people, so they achieve outcomes!" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

GySgt Thomas Vick - Me, too, but with very bitter sweet memories as they had already broken up when this was released. The Beatles were a big part of the soundtrack of my life from 6th grade (I want to Hold Your Hand) until Let it Be, the month I graduated from high school. It somehow always makes me feel like I might cry.

1SG Steven Imerman - You are so correct with your statement. The Beatles were responsible for so many different forms of music. They were pioneers and left a very large mark on music today.
