Good morning Col Burroughs and all my Brothers and Sisters in on VFV. I find that today’s topic has a strong connection to yesterday’s topic. As you read the link that I have provided below, you will see that connection, I’m sure. I try, everyday to look at the Colonel’s topic from a biblical perspective. Interestingly, this has helped me to delve deep into Gods word and thereby has allowed me to grow in my relationship with Jesus. I pray that this is of assistance to those in need of spiritual uplifting or understanding. With that in mind, I have submitted the following for your consideration and I pray that you will be blessed today and always.

"Never play with the feelings of others, because you may win the game, but the risk is…
