Welcome to the “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day and Week!

Good “R.E.D. Friday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to the end of another week from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 6 May 2022!

Let’s “Remember Everyone Deployed” today and every day until they are home once again safely!
_______________________________________________________________________

Today’s Message is: “Done Day!” Why Not?

“Great leaders are never done learning and leading. Leading is an ongoing and continuous process. Leadership is a constant journey of learning and developing your skills, finding better ways of communicating your vision or purpose. Empowering others and being open to new ideas and accepting that your ideas aren’t always the best. Real leaders never stop learning and always lead from the front. Leading isn’t done or over when you exit the building!" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

SGT James Murphy - All these people understand is that they want what others paid a dear price for, through no effort of their own.

No doubt you appreciate learning, developing skills, and sharing what you have learned. I expect you enjoy helping others develop their talents and skills. I pray that we each are blessed with insight by YOU LORD to train up each child as YOU designed them to learn. Help us encourage the natural inquisitiveness of children and never to stifle their hopes and dreams. This applies to physical children and immature disciples of Christ. “Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a great millstone fastened around his neck and to be drowned in the depth of the sea.’ [Matthew 18:5-6] my brother-in-Christ SPC Michael Terrell

Hopefully, you are grateful for completed tasks and steps in processes. Since you demonstrate respect to each person you meet, I expect you thank those who help completing their contributions towards success. By God’s grace, HE is sanctifying the imperfect soul of each of us to perfectly reflect the image of God. The sanctification process of our soul is unstoppable. God sanctifies each of HIS own in HIS perfect timing and always completes HIS ordained work at the end of our life in this imperfect body. ‘I am speaking in human terms, because of your natural limitations. For just as you once presented your members as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness leading to more lawlessness, so now present your members as slaves to righteousness leading to sanctification’. [Romans 6:19 ESV]

I pray that YOU guide the mind, hands and feet of each deployed service member as they perform their duties and execute missions. Enable each to get sufficient rest and sustenance without compromising their responsibilities. “Upon a watchtower I stand, O Lord, continually by day, and at my post I am stationed whole nights.’ [Isaiah 8 ESV] I pray for peace, comfort and a safe and secure night for the dependents of each deployed service member safe sleep for each. Give each dependent the ability to rest and sleep peacefully – free from worry. If you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet. [Proverbs 3:24 ESV]

As Mother’s Day is around the corner, I lift deployed service member mothers, on duty police mothers and federal/state agent mothers to YOU LORD. I pray that YOU prompt those who interact with each to thank those mothers on duty this weekend at home and abroad. Enable the children of deployed mothers to bless their mom this weekend. Where possible enable them to phone their mom or videoconference with their mom. ‘What was your mother? A lioness! Among lions she crouched; in the midst of young lions, she reared her cubs.’ [Ezekiel 19:2 ESV]

I pray that you and I heed the admonition of the LORD on what is done by HIM
a. 'And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son. [Revelation 21:6-7 ESV]
b. 'If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you.' [John 13:14-15 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.
