COL Mikel Burroughs good read/share: for the Colonel's Motivational Quotes of the Day. Where the mighty American Bald Eagles roam in the mighty ROCKY MOUNTAINS OF CASTLE ROCK, COLORADO AMONG THEIR EAGLES-NEST. I know the view must be MAGNIFICENT on this day May 10, 2020 as you might glance upon the mighty snow capped mountains headed into the month of June. As you know I would respond a lot throughout the week, but I am full-time DOD employee doing contracts for the Defense Contracting Management Agency. It is good to have sometime on the weekend before I start my running around to respond my friend.
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL:
TODAY'S THEME IS “Be Present Day!” I always try to accept responsibility and accountability for my actions.
The picture depicts my inner-thought:

Thanks for the wonderful quote today SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL - Joe may you always be present for those in need, may you wish your wife and Mother a Happy Mother's Day! If your Mom is with us reach out to her on this special day and if she is in heaven send her a prayer of thanks, continue to be present and positive during these uncertain times in our country's history, and be present for yourself and safe and healthy!

I expect that you are aware that while conscious you live in the present constantly throughout life on earth. God is constantly aware of all time and everything that occurs. By HIS grace and mercy, HE executes his corporate plan and individual plan for our own life for good and not for evil. The Word of God is constant and unchanging. HE changes us through HIS Word Joe.
I pray that you and I patiently trust the LORD’s guidance and timing to fulfill HIS word in our lives and those we love. I pray LORD that YOU bless each of us with wisdom to discern how YOUR word applies to us in the present and future, my brother-in-Christ SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL.
I pray that each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters spend time to reflect on YOUR word during this COVID-19 quarantine period. I pray that Biblical teachers and pastors seek YOUR guidance to develop their pastoral teaching plans. I pray they teach the whole counsel of God and ensure that scripture is taught in context.
I thank YOU LORD that YOUR Word created and sustains order throughout YOUR creation. YOU are the source of all wisdom and YOU always respond to sincere prayers for wisdom.
I thank YOU that YOU are in complete control of COVID-19 infection as in all areas of life. In YOUR perfect timing, YOU are working this situation to the good of the body of Christ and by extension through common grace to those around us.
I lift families, singles, communities, towns, cities and states and their elected and appointed leaders and legislature members around the relatively free world to YOU. I pray that YOU motivate individuals around the world to develop solutions to local problems from the family outward to communities. I pray for increased peaceful relations in families, neighborhoods and among disparate groups. I pray that trustworthy people will rise up to lead from local levels upwards and that untrustworthy elected officials will be defeated at the ballot box.
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.

I drove a few hours to surprise my wife for Mother's Day. She more than earned the title militar spouse and mother. Not sure what I would do without her. Happy Mother's Day to all the great moms on RP.
