If there was a year we needed a "new beginning" this one probably ranks in most people's top 10. Happy New Year everyone! The first R.E.D. Friday of 2021
Good morning Col Burroughs and Posse. Love the topic for the Saturday group too.
All we should bring forward with us into this new year are the positives: we survived, we learned, we still love, we care for each other, we offer support and anything else good that we have. Let's leave behind the hatred, the fear and the evil that has been such a large part of 2020. Take this new year as a time to try out new skills, be reenergized, and step up in new ways. What can you do personally to make 2021 a better and more positive year, for yourself, your organization and/or your family?

Lt Col Charlie Brown - Outstanding message for the first day and I want to personally thank you for being here everyday to provide your wisdom, professionalism, and influence to our RallyPoint Family for the Colonel's Motivational/Inspirational quotes and message Charlie. Here's wishing you and your entire family a blessed and wonderful start to the new year of 2021...

“Good New Year’s Day and welcome to new and fresh beginnings. You have 364 days left to accomplish something great, new, and refreshing, so take that first step today and put your plan into action. Whatever your new beginnings may be do with a great and positive attitude and bring along those who can help you achieve that plan, that dream, or purpose you’ve been looking for. May your new beginnings in this year be awesome; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy as you move forward in this new year. May this upcoming year bring good luck and prosperity to your home and life. Live happily and stay well.” – COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I expect that you are acutely aware that each moment is actually a new beginning for you and those you love. I hope and pray that you and I blessed with compassion and endurance to demonstrate grace in the challenges that await us. No doubt you understand that God prepares us for what will challenge us by building up our character as well as patience. 'The end of a matter is better than its beginning; Patience of spirit is better than haughtiness of spirit.' [Ecclesiastes 7:8 ESV] my sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.

I pray for the immature in faith as well as the mature that the LORD will bless us with wisdom, eyes to see and ears to hear so as to be able to recognize the schemes of the worldly charlatans who mimic friendship and avoid being lured into any pits. 'Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.' [Romans 12:2 ESV]
I pray for parents of young children as they make decisions on how best to educate them and protect them. LORD I pray that YOU renew the minds of parents to give them confidence that YOU entrust them to raise their children. ‘Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart from it.’ [Proverbs 22:6 ESV]
I lift the US Senators and US House Represnetives to YOU. I pray that YOU guide the wise and the able to come to agreement on how best to execute their legislative responsibilities. ‘The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight. For by me your days will be multiplied, and years will be added to your life.' [Proverbs 9:10-11 ESV]
I pray that YOU cause the Squad and their radical allies to be confused and angry with each other and reduce their effectiveness. ‘The fool says in his heart, “There is no God. They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good. together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one. [Psalm 53:1; 3b ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Friday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Saturday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Doesn't matter where you've been, now is the start of the next chapter.
"Grab the Carp!" or something like that.

Happy RED Friday and Happy New Year, RallyPoint!

MSgt Robert "Rock" Aldi, Sgt Jim Belanus- When you smoke a carp, does it work better with a pipe or rolling papers?

Good New Year's morning to you Burroughs Posse Leader from the beautiful deep blue, crystal clear skies of the Boston Area... I slept long & sound last night, and although I slept longer than usual, I feel energized as 2021 is underway! Finishing breakfast now so will catch up with new beginnings, shortly... Happy New Years to the Burroughs household!!!

“New Beginnings Day!” Why Not?

1) "Let every dawn be to you as the beginning of life, and every setting sun be to you as its close." - John Ruskin

2) "The beginning is the most important part of any work, especially in the case of a young and tender thing; for that is the time at which the character is being formed and the desired impression is more readily taken." - Plato

3) "Nothing worthwhile was ever accomplished without the will to start, the enthusiasm to continue and, regardless of temporary obstacles, the persistence to complete." - Waite Phillips

4) "Vitality shows in not only the ability to persist but the ability to start over." - F. Scott Fitzgerald

5) "When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us." - Alexander Graham Bell

If we choose never to begin anew, we are buried in the mire of the past, so...

“Life is full of new beginnings and new years; leadership and productivity can have new beginnings as well. Start thinking about new ways of thinking to get more out of your people and organization!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
