Good morning Col Burroughs and I am thinking of those who are still deployed around the world. May they all come home safely to loved ones.
Challenges. I do love your comments! Be proactive and face challenges head on while being willing to ask for help and guidance. How much better it would all go if we and all our leadership did just that. Challenges keep life interesting; they strengthen us, they keep us evolving as people. Don't run from them. Sometimes it is hard to accept the need to change what or the way we are doing something but try it; you might be surprised at how much better things go.

I expect you have met and overcome many challenges in your life. From physical challenges to health and family challenges. No doubt your faith in the LORD has helped you stand up in testing periods, crises and this SARS-Cov-2 pandemic, my sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.
I pray that each one of your adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer is solidly grounded in faith in YOU dear LORD. Remember that God is in complete control of all things including the spread of SARS-CoV-2; the rioters and looters; and every other challenge facing your family and loved ones. 'And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified.' [Romans 8:28-30 ESV]
I pray for the policemen, state and federal agents in this nation as well as in Canada, Mexico, Europe, India, Philippines, South Korea, Japan Australia, New Zealand and other relatively free nations and their loved ones. LORD I pray that YOU bless each one of these individuals with stamina, enduring strength, and balance in their lives between work, family and relaxation to meet the challenges they face each day.
I lift the teachers and parents who are doing their best to educate each child in actual school rooms, virtual school and home school. I pray that YOU renew the mind of YOUR own and bless the children with endurance to face the challenges to finish their schooling.
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

Good “R.E.D Friday” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from the chilly crystal clear skies of the Greater Boston Area where it is 47° with 48% Humidity and winds WNW 9 mph... Remembering Everyone Deployed” until they return home once again. “Challenge Day!” Why Not?
Think about these quotes:
1) "When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change." - Paulo Coelho
2) "The most rewarding things you do in life are often the ones that look like they cannot be done." - Arnold Palmer
3) "There are no great people in this world, only great challenges which ordinary people rise to meet." - William Halsey
4) "Sometimes the darkest challenges, the most difficult lessons, hold the greatest gems of light." - Barbara Marciniak
5) "Opposition is a natural part of life. Just as we develop our physical muscles through overcoming opposition - such as lifting weights - we develop our character muscles by overcoming challenges and adversity." - Stephen Covey
Don't be afraid of challenges or to be challenged, as...
“There are many leadership challenges that you’ll face as a leader and new ones will pop up unexpectedly each day; be proactive, face conflict head-on, be creative, be objective, and reach out for guidance or help when needed.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
