Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs and family. Currently trying what to do with some of the things I've been gifted this holiday season. I know they were given with good intentions but they are just more "stuff" The things I cherish most are the visits, the calls, the opportunities to go and see and experience what is out there. At the end of the day or the end of our time, we really won't care about the stuff, but about the memories.

I use those "gifts" as little gifts I need for those emergency gifts when I can't or don't want to go to the store. I store them in my "stuff" room.

I expect that you paid close attention to the training and behavior of any children you raised or taught since minimalist involvement with raising children is deplorable and you are wiser than that Charlie.
I pray that you and I are spiritually aware and love our spouse, children and other family members enough to be involved in their lives, my friend and sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown .
Thank YOU, LORD, for the written WORD which we call the Bible. I am thankful that YOU play close attention to each of us continually and that YOUR plan for our life and each one we love is fulfilled by YOU.
I pray that as 2019 draws to a close, YOU provide wisdom to leaders and followers throughout this land. I pray that people will stand up for what is right, noble and true and confront injustice as best we can.
I lift the confused, the mentally unstable and those suffering from mental illness, PTSD and TBI. I pray that YOU make each aware about their condition and lead them towards improved health, care and treatment. Calm the raging souls and protect the family members from misplaced wrath.
Do what needs to be done, in the U.S. Congress and state legislatures as well as the Executive Branches to motivate them to do what is best for the nation and various states. I pray that YOU turn as many minds against corruption as possible.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well Sunday night.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Give clear instructions and let the individual get the job done without stifling supervision and see what happens.
