The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!


Today's Message is: "Concern Day!" Why Not?

The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!


Good “Thursday!” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters,” and all great connections. Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in The Woodlands, TX — 8 September 2022!


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


What should leaders be ‘Concerned” about? The list of most common concerns and challenges for leaders can change daily. Most common concerns for leaders include effectiveness, the ability to inspire others, guiding change, developing a vision and setting goals as a leader and for others, maintaining integrity, and maintaining a strong leadership character. Leadership character is one of the most important roles in bringing a team and organization together. The people that follow will give and do more when they respect a leader’s character. If you leaders take care of their character, then leadership concerns and challenges will take care of themselves. As a leader are you concerned about your character or your reputation?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

I ran across another something that I would like to share, as it relates to today’s motivational quote. I hope that you enjoy it. Many blessings.


Why Paul's Ministry Was So Effective

by Pastor John Fredericksen Printer Friendly Version

Share Article:

We have Christian friends who have a close relationship with an outstanding Bible teacher. They tell the story of going on a cruise with this teacher. At the time, the husband knew Christ as Savior, but the wife was still unsaved and somewhat leery of letting go of the doctrines learned as a child in her church. The teacher disarmed this lady by seeking her out, sharing a meal with them, being very personable, and lovingly sharing the Scriptures…

Good afternoon Col Burroughs and all of my br and sisters here on VFV. For me, there is one very important point when it comes to concern for others and that is to bring the message of the Good News of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That is he I chose the below article today. May you have a blessed day today and always as you show concern for others.

Concern is one of those traits that is way too easy to fake. One needs to spend time getting to know people and seeing them in action before they can learn whether or not that perceived concern is real.
