Good morning COL Mikel J. Burroughs I am teaching mindfulness as a part of resiliency skills this week. Mindfulness isn't difficult, it is just something that requires some practice. It really does help to ground people and calm needless anxiety.

I pray that you and I are both thoughtful and mindful and that we listen and pay attention while engaging in conversation, my friend and sister-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.
LORD I pray that YOU bless each one of YOUR adopted children with an eagerness to treat others with respect. Empower us to remember that each human being is worthy of respect since our soul has been created in YOUR image.
I lift the House of Representatives to YOU and pray that YOU bless representatives and staff members who are YOUR adopted children with wisdom and insight. I pray that confusion is sewn in anyone conspiring to do evil.
Let YOUR light shine in the darkness of men’s and women’s souls and draw them to YOU.
Use each of us who are YOUR adopted children to be salt and light.
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.
