Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. I have had the opportunity to have folks around me that are smart, bright and full of ideas, that made me look smarter than I may have been. However, the smartest thing I have done is to fully commit to the one who is smarter than all of us, and that is Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. Have a blessed day today and always.
