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 April 4, 2020 as you might glance upon the mighty snow capped ROCKY MOUNTAINS headed into the month of May. 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 sometime on the weekend before I start my running around to respond my friend.
Today's theme is “Control Day!” SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT SERIOUSLY AS CORNAVIRUS INVADES PLANET EARTH!
The picture depicts my inner-thought:

I expect you are aware that God ‘controls’ all of creation through the Word of God whom we refer to as the Christ. God is the author and sustainer of all life. The LORD is in complete control of COVID-19 Alan.
I pray that you and I confess our desires and plans for control to the LORD, and that we each respond quickly to HIS guidance and accept HIS forgiveness, my brother-in-Christ Alan K..
I lift the family members of the COVID-19 infected people in each nation especially YOUR adopted sons and daughters to YOU, dear God. I pray that YOU bless each one with hope, peace, comfort and the ability to rest.
I pray for wisdom and endurance for the medical researchers involved in testing treatment regimens and vaccine development for COVID-19.
Thank YOU, LORD, for restraining the COVID-19 infection in each nation, county, state, region and district. YOU allow bounded infection rate and degree of infection to occur for YOUR perfect purposes. By YOUR grace YOU heal individuals and bless others with immune system resistance to this virus.
I lift the leaders of the nations and the subordinate government states, provinces, counties, cities, towns and villages, military leaders and business executives to YOU LORD. I pray YOU reveal to them that absolute control is YOUR province YOU allow them limited control in their realms, corporations and military units.
I pray that each one of YOUR adopted children and their loved ones sleep well Saturday night.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.
