Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs. I like the Tony Horton quote you selected for us today. Why that one? For me, it best explains one of my favorites from C.S. Lewis: "The present is the only time in which any duty may be done or grace received." Stay focused on the present. Cheers.

I expect that you understand that you exist in the continual present time by God’s design. Our LORD is all powerful with complete control of every aspect of HIS creation including our life and the lives of each one we love. God is omniscient and HE has complete knowledge of all time all-the-time. I expect you are wise enough to realize that you have no dominion over the present time Bill
I pray that you and I seek wisdom from the LORD and HIS Word alone. I pray that we seek knowledge and understanding from other people who are experts in their field and then we pray to the LORD for wisdom and discernment, my brother-in-Christ Maj William W. 'Bill' Price.
I thank YOU LORD for civil discourse and mutual respect among peaceful neighbors, businesses working to recover and police forces protecting the law-abiding public in the cities and towns.
I pray for the individuals the rioters and looters injured and the families of any killed. I pray that YOU heal the injured citizens, police force members and deployed National Guard members.
LORD I pray that YOU shake to their core the government officials and others who are supporting the rioters, thugs, and looters. If it is within YOUR will, I pray that YOU allow sickness to break out into those government officials and the criminal elements they support.
I thank you LORD for the neighbors, strangers and others who are helping to clean up the destruction after the riots and wonton looting. I thank YOU for motivating each one and prompting them to respond and their obedience to YOUR prompting.
Do what it takes LORD to reestablish responsible behavior throughout this nation and each other relatively free nation including Australia, Canada, Mexico, India, Europe, Africa, Philippines, Japan, Korea, Central and South America and the Middle East nations.
Thank you, LORD for YOUR Word: “‘In him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of your own poets have said, “‘For we are indeed his offspring.’ [Acts 17:28 ESV]
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well Wednesday night.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

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 THIER EAGLES-NEST. I know the view must be MAGNIFICIENT on this day June 3, 2020 as you might glance upon the mighty snowcapped mountains headed into the month of July. 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 my lunch break once again today for the Colonel's Motivational Quotes of the Day, this read/share can't be beat if you tried your hardest. It gets me going in so many ways as I go through life. Once again thanks for all.
