Timely as always, COL Mikel J. Burroughs ...
“True happiness comes not when we get rid of all of our problems,but when we change our relationship to them, when we see our problems as a potential source of awakening, opportunities to practice, and to learn.”― Richard Carlson
Good R.E.D. Friday all.

Today there was way too much worrying going on for a number of things that I'm involved in by others, so I was inspired Deborah! Thanks for the two great follow-on quotes for today! You have a "worry free" day Sgt Deborah Cornatzer and enjoy!

I pray that you never worry about past mistakes, present dangers or future possibilities, my friend and sister-in-Christ Sgt Deborah Cornatzer.
Heavenly Father, thank you for renewing YOUR mercy and grace every morning. I am very thankful for YOUR good humor and your patience for each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters. At times we are strong in faith and others we quake in our shoes, it seems. YOUR love for each of us is constant and is based on YOUR character.
LORD, YOU are aware of all past, present and future for each of us and those we love. YOU have the best possible intentions for each of us. I pray that YOU will fill the hopeless with HOPE, the grieving with JOY, those who seem to be unloved with a seemingly overwhelming sense of how much loved we are, and our YOUR love and tender mercy into the prison cells, the hospital and hospice rooms, and the hovels of the homeless.
Send YOUR angels to protect those on the fringes of society. Use each of us dear God as YOU know best to be a blessing and free each from worry.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.
