Glad my message today hit home Gene.
Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. When the day of judgment comes to all mankind, I would truly hope the hear the words from God, “Well done, my good and faithful servant” , because I was on fire for the Lord daily. Have a blessed day today and always.

How to Keep the Fire Burning
To keep God’s Holy Spirit alive and active, you must work at it. By Alex Harrison • February 2014

Great leaders always keep a pilot light lit......the need to light the fire can come at the most unexpected times.
Good RED Friday Colonel
