"Keep going" has always been my mantra. No matter how tough things get, I refused to give up -- I keep going. It has been suggested that I give up chocolate. Yeah, right. I'm no quitter.

I expect that you have been tested many times and that you did your best to lead by example in crises, challenges, and this current SARS-Cov-2 risk season. No doubt your family members rely on you for decisions and prioritization in challenging times. I pray that your hope is founded on the rock of Christ, my brother-in-Christ SGT Robert Pryor.
I pray dear LORD that YOU bless each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer with an increase of stamina, endurance and an increase of the fruit of the Spirit goodness, self-control and kindness. I pray LORD that YOU reveal to each one of us what we should do from works, to financial and other resources support, to intercessory prayer. ‘And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up. So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith. [Galatians 6:9-10 ESV]
I lift the scientists, researchers and all others involved in developing treatment and vaccines for SARS-Cov-2, and distribution systems to deliver and monitor the vaccine rollout in this nation, Canada, Mexico, central America, India, Europe, Australia, South Korea, Philippines and Japan to YOU LORD. I pray dear LORD that YOU guide the mind, hands and feet or each individual involved in the development of treatment and vaccines for SARS-CoV-2 and related diseases. I pray that YOU bless the scientists, researchers and all others involved with stamina, knowledge and insight to develop successful treatments and vaccines that are sufficient and safe. I pray that the regulatory agencies are looped in to monitor progress and give the green light for production and distribution to the most vulnerable as well as the medical front line.
I pray for the police, federal and state agents on the front lines to protect the citizens. Give them each wisdom and insight to interdict criminals, rioters and looters dear LORD. 'The path of life leads upward for the prudent, that he may turn away from Sheol beneath.' [Proverbs 15:24 ESV]
I lift the destitute, the homeless, those afflicted with influenza, SARS-CoV-2, mental disease and serious injuries to YOU. I pray that YOU blesse ach one with stamina and hope in YOU. ‘Even youths shall faint and be weary, and young men shall fall exhausted; but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.’[Isaiah 40:29-30 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep 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 morning Col Burroughs and the rest of the Posse. Yesterday was a VERY long day. We spent 10 hours on line and then more time with calls and emails. However, at the end of it, we came out with four new very good facilitators. Well worth it!
Keep going....could be the military motto. We know it to be true. We have to keep moving and not give up; others are depending on us for their survival. I remember going through training and our flight commander told us: you make it or you fail as a flight. When anyone wanted to quit, they didn't because that would mean they had failed their brothers and sisters. I find a similar view in the Red Cross; we find a way, we keep going because others depend on us.
Thank you for the tag this morning SFC Davis and LTC Ford

COL Mikel J. Burroughs
Lt Col Charlie Brown - Great share on the extra quotes Charlie. Playing catch-up from California and flying home today... Have a great day...
"We all took an oath and that oath lives forever even after we've left the military and part of that oath is, we "Keep Going" no matter what obstacles are in our way, struggles we are living and working through, or problems we face today or tomorrow. This is a brotherhood and sisterhood of warriors from all parts of the country, backgrounds, races, cultures, and military services that will band together when called upon. May you always keep going in your personal life and social life with each other; may you always have that positive attitude and outlook on life; may you take the best care of yourself, so you can help others; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy during tough times. You are Warriors and leader... Keep going for all the reasons you tell others. Have a Blessed Sunday." - COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
