Good morning Col Burroughs and posse. I am with the Red Cross response team, waiting for more people to arrive from the flight out of Afghanistan.
Lots of people here ready to assist. Emergency Management. Health and Human Services, US Public Health Service, etc. We are all working together on this and between us we will provide what people need.
More when I finish my shift and get to go home.

I expect you are reliable, trustworthy, and empathetic in general. No doubt, those who rely on you for leadership, advice, and knowledge, appreciate your patience and flexibility in answering their questions and your wisdom. You understand that the fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. The LORD justified each of us who are HIS adopted sons and daughters at our salvation and cleanses us of all sin and defects. By HIS grace HE sees us as pure with impeccable character even while HE sanctifies our soul to perfectly reflect HIS image. I hope your firm foundation in character and your courage of convictions has increased along with respect for others. I pray that you and I stand firm in faith and demonstrate love to each person we interact with. ‘Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love. [Ephesians 4:15-16 ESV] my sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.

I pray for sufficient fruit of the Holy Spirit self-control, patience, and humility for each and every one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads or listens to this prayer. I hope and pray that you and I have taken to heart the admonition of the LORD to confess our shortfalls and failures and ask the LORD to help us genuinely repent and when appropriate ask for forgiveness. Scripture reminds us ‘for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift,’ [Romans 3:23 ESV] and ‘if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.’ [1 John 1:8-9 ESV]
I lift the situation in Kabul, Afghanistan and each person who provided support to the US, UK, Canadian, and other forces as well as their family members to YOU LORD. I pray that YOU motivate the Biden administration officials and President Biden to do all they can to extricate the individuals and families from their peril. I pray that the vast majority will be able to leave Afghanistan and relocate safely in USA, UK, Canada or elsewhere. ‘Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.” [Psalm 83:3-4 ESV]
I pray LORD that YOU cleanse each of YOU adopted sons and daughters of any impurity which inhibits YOUR love from flowing through us. I pray that YOUR light shines through each of when we enter a room, home, mode of common transportation. Empower us bring calm and peace into areas of turmoil. Enable our smile to be contagious. ‘Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.’ [Psalm 51:10-12 ESV]
I lift the justices and judges on US Supreme Court, the Federal district and Appellate Courts, the State Supreme Courts, the Courts in Canada, UK, Israel, India, Australia, New Zealand, Korea and Japan, and the appointment processes to YOU dear LORD. I pray that YOU shine a light on corruption among the judges and the appointment processes. I pray that YOU raise up honest, excellent and well-spoken and great listening judges to replace the corrupt as well as the retiring judges. 'A false balance is an abomination to the LORD, but a just weight is his delight. When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom. The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.’ [‘Proverbs 11:1-3 ESV]
I pray that you and I heed the admonition of the LORD on integrity
c. “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure, you use it will be measured back to you.” [Luke 6:37-38 ESV]
d. 'But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine. Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled. Likewise, urge the younger men to be self-controlled. Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity, and sound speech that cannot be condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us. Bondservants are to be submissive to their own masters in everything; they are to be well-pleasing, not argumentative, not pilfering, but showing all good faith, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.' [Titus 2:1-10 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Tuesday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Wednesday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Yes he does PO2 (Join to see) Thank you for the reminder my friend and have a great day Jeffrey...

“It’s Tuesday and what do you need?

There is a big difference between what you want and what you need to be successful in life. Even in leadership there is a need for many characteristics that will allow you to effectively lead others. Yes, you can want to be the best, but you need to ‘walk the walk’, if you’re going to ‘talk the talk!’ What you need may be what you’re looking at in the mirror today…YOU! Sometimes our want is greater than our actual need, especially when others need much more than we do. That leads me to this quote…

‘It’s not always about what you want. It’s about what you need.’ — Stephanie Zamora

May your need be greater than what you want for the right reasons; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a continued bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Absolutely. God provides for our needs. Our earthly wants are fueled by our sinful nature.
