Good Red Friday morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs and thank you for another excellent topic.
"Thank you" two small words that carry a wealth of meaning and appreciation. So easy to say and yet, so often we fail to do so when we should. It means we "see" someone; that he or she and their efforts do not go unnoticed. What a difference that can make.
Is there someone in your life you need to say "thank you" to?

I pray that you and I are generous, compassionate and trustworthy and serve as good examples of thankfulness and gratitude to family, friends, coworkers and strangers, my friend and sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.
LORD YOU are author of all. YOU work all too good to those who love and are called according to YOUR purpose namely each and every adopted child of YOURS.
I pray that we who call YOU Abba Father rejoice always; give thanks in everything as coming from your ‘hand;’ and keep an attitude of openness to you throughout the day;
Give each of us a heart sensitive to YOU. Empower us to respond promptly to your softly spoken words, nudges and opening and closing doors in our life.
Help us to be genuinely thankful in all circumstances. I pray that we each quickly learn the lessons YOU teach us through circumstances. Empower us to teach lessons we have learned to those willing to hear and see.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

PO3 Rod Arnold
Its so easy to say Thank You in fact I just did. I'm sitting in an ER waiting room and a nurse came over to ask me if I would like something to drink. She brought me some coffee and I thanked her, easy!

“In the end, though, maybe we must all give up trying to pay back the people in this world who sustain our lives. In the end, maybe it's wiser to surrender before the miraculous scope of human generosity and to just keep saying thank you, forever and sincerely, for as long as we have voices.” --Elizabeth Gilbert
I like, too, "Pay It Forward".
Good R.E.D. Friday and Thank you RP Friends and, especially, COL Mikel J. Burroughs.

Gallagher SEAL TEAM 7 is in UCMJ JAG kangaroo kourt San Diego. Our mentors would have never made Regensburg or Venafro had they dealt with such rules of engagement-- let alone annihilating the Lebensboirn breeders of Dresden '45.

Good Red Friday Morning to you Colonel Burroughs and all my friends on Rally Point.
The first thing I do in the morning before getting out of bed is to say a prayer of thanksgiving to God for allowing me to rest and reinvigorate and for another day of life. Then it is up and to the kitchen to start the first pot of coffee of the day. After the coffee, then the day truly starts.
Have a blessed Red Friday one and all. Be safe and at peace.
Peace be with you and your house.

I've been taught to pray for the Peace of Jerusalem, daily so that's my morning prayer. Thank you ALL for allowing me to express my beliefs.
