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 MOUNTAINS OF CASTLE ROCK, COLORADO AMONG THEIR EAGLES-NEST. I know the view must be MAGNIFICENT on this day February 2, 2021 as you might glance upon the mighty snow capped mountains headed into the month of March. 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 some time on my break to respond my friend.

Today’s Message is: “Soul Day!” Why Not? I quote, “The living soul of man, once conscious of its power, cannot be quelled.” — Horace Mann

The picture depicts my inner-thought:

Great quote for the message my friend... Have a great evening SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL...

“What a great message today and quotes about setting your soul on fire and the strength that your soul shows through your eyes. If that fire needs igniting, then do it today, don’t wait! The soul is powerful. ‘The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.’ — Ferdinand Foch. May your life be about growing your soul; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a continued bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy. You soul is precious and can never be replaced or taken away from you.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I hope that you and those you love are enduring well in these challenging times. Our human soul is not in peril since the Holy Spirit dwells with the soul of each oh HIS adopted sons and daughters. This is a season of shoring up and purifying character in many households and neighborhoods. ‘Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. [3 John 1:2 ESV] my brother-in-Christ SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL.

LORD I thank YOU for satisfaction of the soul of each adopted child of YOURS. YOUR common grace extends to each human being as does common peril, common risks and common challenges. We often are not responsible for what happens to us and those we love. Yet we are responsible for our actions, words and thoughts in response. Thank YOU for justification. Enable each of us to confess and repent when vengeance and other evil intentions threaten peace. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.’ [1 John 1:8-10 ESV]
I pray for sustaining hope for adopted son and daughter who reads this prayer. YOU are working all to good for the body of Christ corporately and each of us individually in YOUR perfect timing. Give each of us eyes to see, ears to hear and a heart sensitive to the Holy Spirit. And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.' [Galatians 6:9 ESV]
LORD I lift families, neighborhoods, towns, counties, provinces, states, and nations of the USA, Canada, Mexico, UK, India, China, Korea, Japan, Philippines, Australia, and New Zealand to YOU. I pray that YOU purge the nations through neighborhoods of plans for vengeance, abuse of power, collusion, and plans with evil intentions. Let YOUR light shine through the dark and shed light on these evil plans and planners. Bring them night-terrors and cause them to fear their shadow. ‘For without cause they hid their net for me; without cause they dug a pit for my life. Let destruction come upon him when he does not know it! And let the net that he hid ensnare him; let him fall into it—to his destruction! [Psalm 35:7-8 ESV]
I lift the corrupt in power around the world to YOU LORD. YOU allow evil to seem to prevail for a season and in YOUR perfect timing YOU deliver the innocent and purge the guilty. ‘Do not be deceived: God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.’ Galatians 6:7-9 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Tuesday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Wednesday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Good morning Col Burroughs and Posse. It is snowing again!
Soul. Some want to claim there is no such thing but as someone who has worked with the dying, I can tell you they are wrong. And when the soul is engaged we can do anything we need to do. People who engage with their souls have also brought their hearts and minds to doing what needs to be done and others understand and respond to that. This is leadership at its best. Once seen, never forgotten.

Good “Tuesday” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from the cloudy and very cool Fort Myers, this day... 55° currently and not getting out of the 50s today.... That storm system that is way up in the northeast, includes northerly winds here in FL that have been upwards of 20 mph overnight and are still blustery today...

I am working my IT shift today and I have a big analysis and report to do, so will be on and off RP today, but mostly off... Have a great day, Mikel!

“Soul Day!” Why Not?

MY PERSONAL QUOTE:
"And so it goes...One cannot separate the body from the soul in life, but as a baby is born, so is its soul." Kerry F. Harkins February 2, 2021

1) "Don’t gain the world and lose your soul; wisdom is better than silver and gold.” – Bob Marley

2) "“There is nothing more beautiful than someone who goes out of their way to make life beautiful for others.” ― Mandy Hale

3) "Your soul - that inner quiet space - is yours to consult. It will always guide you in the right direction." - Wayne Dyer

4) "To listen to your soul, you should be calm. With loud mind and so many things to think about, it is difficult to approach your soul. Maybe that is the reason why people with less intelligence have happier and simpler lives.” - Unknown

5) "The beauty of the soul shines out when a man bears with composure one heavy mischance after another, not because he does not feel them, but because he is a man of high and heroic temper." - Aristotle

6) "The greatest achievement was at first and for a time a dream. The oak sleeps in the acorn, the bird waits in the egg, and in the highest vision of the soul a waking angel stirs. Dreams are the seedlings of realities." - James Allen

In like manner...

“The soul of leadership is connected with the team, relational in its character, inclusive in its communications, collaborative with the team, holistic in nature, and non-hierarchical, but team-oriented!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
