Good Morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs . Being yourself is important. We are God's children and he has created us for his purpose. Being yourself follows His plan and brings out the gifts that He has given you.
1 Peter 3:3-4
Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear— but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable
beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God's sight is very precious.
Have a Blessed Day friends

I expect that you realize your soul was created in an imperfect image of the LORD whose nature is Perfect in spirit. As the Holy Spirit sanctifies our soul coincident with our salvation, the imperfect is gradually being transformed to perfect which will occur at the end of our life on earth John.
I pray that you and I are becoming more selfless, compassionate, and kind as we are quarantined at home in close quarters with family members, my brother-in-Christ Sgt John H..
I pray LORD that YOU bless each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer to focus on assisting others primarily and rejecting the advertising focus on being their self – as though they had a choice.
Thank YOU, LORD for the sanctifying process. YOU designed each of us to worship YOU and to love those YOU place us in the midst of. Sanctification perfects each of us individually and corporately into the Body of Christ.
I lift YOUR adopted sons and daughters who are focused on their own desires and themselves to YOU. I pray that YOU convict them and motivate them to focus outside themselves to help others less fortunate than they are.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well Tuesday night.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs There are lots of pretenders out there and not many who are willing to be honest about who they are. This is foolish...it takes a hspecial uge amount of energy to keep up a facade when you could be using that energy for something important and productive. We are all individuals with unique combinations of talents and skills; don't hide yours; the world needs you as you are.

Good morning Sir! I always hated who I was but lately I'm starting to like this guy a little bit! I think most of us would like to change a few things but it's when it becomes an obsession that it gets bad! Have a great day everyone and thank you for the quote!
