Good morning Col Burroughs and Posse and Happy Hump day. Yesterday did not go well; my internet connection wasn't stable enough for me to conduct the workshops so they've been postponed. I hope we have better luck today.
Whenever we talk about the "process" we should remember that we also are a work in process. If you look back ten years or even five, I bet you are not the same as you were back then. When I looked at where I started my career in the military to who I was when I completed it, my process of evolution as a leader was pretty significant. And that is just one small piece of a "process"
Can you look and see how process works in your life or in your work, or perhaps your spiritual growth?

Lt Col Charlie Brown - We are definitely all Work in Progress and that is what great about being a human being. We're part of a unique process called life and we're always evolving (hopefully for the better). Have a great evening Charlie...

“Process can take on a lot of different meanings for today’s message. The process of building something, starting a business, building a team, and the process of leadership. The list goes on, but whatever the process may be, it can always be improved, adjusted, or even terminated. ‘Love the process and the grind as much as the results.’ — Unknown Author. May your process for life, your attitude, and the positivity you bring into others life create the results you’re looking for or trying to achieve; 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. Learn to trust the process whatever it may be — get involved in the process.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

We have a process for Warriors for Life (WFL) 6-days a week to provide Online Peer Support — join SSgt Alia Schenck TONIGHT to try out our process of “Sharing is Caring!”

I hope you have processed significantly in influence as a leader of your family, organization, informal leadership position as you have accomplished goals and objectives on time without overextending resources. I expect those you lead appreciate your leadership and your attention to their needs, hopes and dreams. No doubt your listening skills have improved. ‘Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.’ [Philippians 2:3-4 ESV] my brother-in-Christ Lt Col Charlie Brown.

I pray that each one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters appreciate the sanctification of our own soul and the soul of our brothers and sisters-in-Christ in our family, among our friends and coworkers. 'I thank my God in all my remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine for you all making my prayer with joy, because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now. And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. [Philippians 1:3-6 ESV]
LORD I pray for an increase of compassion, mercy and love for those ministering to the desperate, the homeless, the downtrodden, those abandoned by family, friends, church, and local through national government. I know that YOU are willing to move heaven and earth to aid the downtrodden, the poor, the widow, the widower and the orphan. ‘For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.’” And the Lord said, “Hear what the unrighteous judge says. And will not God give justice to his elect, who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long over them? I tell you he will give justice to them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?” [Luke 18:4-8 ESV]
I pray that each adopted son and daughter of YOURS works well together with brothers and sisters in Christ as well as neighbors and seekers. Bless each of us dear LORD by letting YOUR light and love shine through us. 'But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth. [2 Thessalonians 2:13 ESV]
I pray that the leaders of the nations, states, counties, provinces, businesses and military organization in the USA, Canada, Mexico, UK, France, Israel, South Korea, Japan, Philippines, New Zealand, Australia, Egypt, Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda, and Russia seek wisdom from YOU dear LORD. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. YOU are the source of all wisdom and YOU know exactly who is sincere in their prayers. For the sake of the people, I pray that most leaders are humble enough to seek wisdom. ‘Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be still wiser;
teach a righteous man, and he will increase in learning. The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight. [Proverbs 9:9-10 ESV]
LORD YOU know what needs to be done to unjust leaders, judges, magistrates and legislators who reject YOUR wisdom to their risk as they ignore the pleas of the desperate, the downtrodden and those abandoned by family, friends and governments. ‘Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth unto his own flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth unto the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap eternal life. And let us not be weary in well-doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.’ [Galatians 6:7-9]
I pray for good judgement and an honest search for knowledge for the leaders and judges of the nations as they evaluate the source of COVID 19 and the response of communist China. LORD I pray that YOU sift the corrupt leaders of China like wheat. ‘Woe to those who decree iniquitous decrees, and the writers who keep writing oppression, to turn aside the needy from justice and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey! What will you do on the day of punishment, in the ruin that will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help, and where will you leave your wealth? [Isaiah 10:1-3 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Wednesday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Thursday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ

Good “Wednesday & Hump Day” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from the overcast skies of SW Florida with a current temp of 68° and headed up into the low 80s...

It's “Process Day!” Why Not?


1) "I never failed once. It just happened to be a 2000-step process." - Thomas A. Edison

2) "Knowledge is a process of piling up facts; wisdom lies in their simplification." - Martin Luther King, Jr.

3) "Peace is a daily, a weekly, a monthly process, gradually changing opinions, slowly eroding old barriers, quietly building new structures." - John F. Kennedy

4) "The most difficult thing is the decision to act. The rest is merely tenacity. The fears are paper tigers. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life and the procedure. The process is its own reward." - Amelia Earhart

5) "Strategic planning is the continuous process of making present entrepreneurial (risk-taking) decisions systematically and with the greatest knowledge of their futurity; organizing systematically the efforts needed to carry out these decisions; and measuring the results of these decisions against the expectations through organized, systematic feedback." - Peter Drucker

Everything worth doing involves a process, a road map of sorts and this is especially true for Leaders and Leadership... Read on below:

“Leadership is a process where a leader influences the team to accomplish a goal/objection and moves, motivates, and inspires the organization and team to work together as a cohesive unit!" — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
