I hope you had a peaceful and joyous Sunday and your courage of conviction was not deliberately challenged Carl.
I pray that you and I have courage of convictions, forbearance, and fortitude in character, my friend and brother-in-Christ Col Carl Whicker.
LORD God I thank YOU that YOU pruned each adopted son and daughter of sinful convictions and are blessing us with convictions which honor YOU as well as those we love including our neighbors.
I pray LORD that as Christmas [December 25 in western church; January 7 in Orthodox church], Kwanza [December 26-January 1], and Hanukah [December 22- December30] approaches that YOU will bring peace and joy into the communities especially those which have experienced turbulence in weather and/or violence.
I lift up the executives, legislators, and judges from the Federal level through each local level to YOU LORD. I pray that YOU shine light on those who are conspiring to hide their despicable motives and actions. I pray that YOU convict people to shed light on the conspiracies before significant damage is done.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well tonight.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

LTC Stephen F. - Thank you for the prayer, Stephen. We had a wonderful day with our oldest son and his family. My wife and daughter in law prepared yet another Thanksgiving feast, since my son had to work on Thanksgiving day. The grandkids had a wonderful time and we all enjoyed family time. Hope your sunday was good, too. Have a great Monday, too.

This quote from Jerry Reed frames this decently as well. Hope everyone has a great day- traveling home on ice and snow packed roads. See everyone tomorrow
