THA-THANG:

Welcome to the T.O.W.E.R. O.F. P.O.W.E.R.! On each level (even numbered level) we will do an exercise. Twelves reps of each. Then we will mosey to the next level & complete the next exercise.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

  • Been reading screw tape letters
    • Mentor demon writing a young demon
  • God calls us, further up further in, but he doesn’t do it for us. He shows us how, he equips us, & then steps back, eagerly waiting for us to do walk our own
    • Like a father, or coach or mentor
  • This is a good thing
  • I’ve been in a desert season spiritually, sometimes calling to the Lord, sometimes not. Asking him to carry me, delivery me & other times just content with having to do anything
    • but what I am hearing from CS Lewis is that I need to walk on my own, for the Lord has equipped me to do so
  • So what is your walking on your own?
    • Is it  getting in the Word Today?
    • Is it stepping up here & leading a workout?
    • Is it going back to church?
    • Is it getting back to planning date night & pursuing your significant other
    • Is it honoring the sabbath?
    • Is it joining our 10week challenge to push yourself
    • Is it calling up your buddy, to ask for accountability with your internet browsing?
Where have you been begging to be carried, that the Lord has given you the means to walk on your own?
  • For me, it’s being in the Word daily, dwelling it for 15minutes, even if I don’t hear anything when I do

MOLESKIN:

“He wants them to learn to walk and must therefore take away His hand; and if only the will to walk is really there He is pleased with their stumbles.”
