Good “Saturday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome to the weekend from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 19 February 2022!


Today’s Message is: “Greatness Day!” Why Not?


“A leader may never reach what they think is greatness, but by working hard to improve and nurture all the necessary qualities they can aspire toward their own personal level of greatness. Those qualities include, but are not limited to: Vision, Inspiration, Strategic & Critical Thinking, Interpersonal Communications, Authenticity & Self-Awareness, Open-Mindedness & Creativity, Flexibility, Responsibility & Dependability, Patience & Tenacity, and Continuous Improvement of all the above. A leader is anyone who wants to be. Are you ready to strive for greatness, then work for it and earn it!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

Good afternoon Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. I believe in the basic makeup of man, that there is a desire to be great. Many do not know how to go about that and do not have the fortunate circumstances to have someone to guide them in achieving their desire to be great. This is true in our spiritual being as well as any other avenue in our lives. I have found that when I expose myself to more of God’s Word and prepare to share the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus, that I am inspired to do it in such a way as to please God. This then becomes a part…

True leaders aren't the ones continually looking to do great things.

Nope, you're very right Jack. It comes naturally through their leadership, passion, and vision...
