Good “Monday” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from the beautiful crystal clear blue skies of Greater Boston!!! 47° with 52% humidity and winds WSW 11 mph... and headed upwards of the low 50s today...
“Assurance Day!” Why Not?
1) "If you wait for the perfect moment when all is safe and assured, it may never arrive. Mountains will not be climbed, races won, or lasting happiness achieved." - Maurice Chevalier
2) "Perseverance is more than endurance. It is endurance combined with absolute assurance and certainty that what we are looking for is going to happen." - Oswald Chambers
3) "The only assurance of our nation's safety is to lay our foundation in morality and religion." - Abraham Lincoln
4) "It is the delight of vulgar talent to dazzle and to bind the beholder. But true genius seeks to defend us from itself. True genius will not impoverish, but will liberate, and add new sense. If a wise man should appear in our village, he would create, in those who conversed with him, a new consciousness of wealth, by opening their eyes to unobserved advantages; he would establish a sense of immovable equality, calm us with assurances that we could not be cheated; as every one would discern the checks and guarantees of condition." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
And just how does Assurance affect a leader, read on...

I hope your assurance is primarily in the LORD through HIS justification of you at your salvation. While there is nothing sinful about a measure of self-assurance, the prideful place too much trust in their abilities, power, wealth, beauty, etc. I expect your faith in the true God sustains you in these challenging times, ‘Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God [Psalm 20:7 ESV], my brother-in-Christ Sgt (Join to see).
LORD, I pray that each one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters takes to heart that YOU are the assured HOPE of the people of the world and all of creation. Too many have faith in objects founded on shifting sands – themselves, their external beauty, their wealth, their power, their intelligence and/or their man-made gods. Faith/trust is only as enduring as the object of faith. Faith in YOU is the only assured faith. 'Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it the people of old received their commendation. By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.' [Hebrews 11:1-3 ESV]
I lift the homeless, mentally ill, desperate and despondent; recent widows, widowers, and orphans who are YOUR adopted children in the USA, Canada, Mexico, UK, Israel, India, South Korea, Japan, Philippines, Australia and New Zealand to YOU. I pray that YOU motivate prayer warriors to pray specifically or intercede in the Spirit for these brothers and sister-in-Christ. I know that YOU care for each one and YOU are sustaining them in their dire straits as YOU build faith.
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Monday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Tuesday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ

Assurance is one of the most critical props to continue doing ones one's duty. If you're not assured you are doing the right thing, perhaps you're not.
