Luke 8:5-8 (Parable of the Sower) – A sower went out to sow his seed. And as he sowed, some fell along the path and some was trampled underfoot, and the birds of the air devoured it. And some fell on the rock, and as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. And some fell among the thorns and the thorns grew up with it and choked it. And some fell into good soil and grew and yielded a hundredfold.

This week while having lunch with some F3 #HIMs to work out the details of the pull up bars, I got to meet Mailbox from JUCO. Mailbox stepped up and offered to help source the pipe needed for the pull-up bars. A little while into the lunch, he looks at me and asks if I did a KTC run last year. I did. He then asked if I was the guy who walked with him up the hill on the backside, after I thought about it, I remembered running/walking with him up that hill. He told me it took him 6 months after that, but he finally made it out. (That was awesome!) We kind of left it at that. But, I was reminded of the parable of the sower.

When we tell other men about F3, it can be like the seed in the parable. Initially, I thought, “Yeah, I got one!” Immediately followed by the thought, “It’s not about you dummy.” It’s about F3. F3 is good. F3 is a gift that was given to us and is only good if we give it away.

What I left out this morning, that I wished I didn’t, was the last sentence in verse 8 – “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Last year my word for the year was Relentless. Things were coming at me hard and fast and stayed that way all year. From losses to job struggles, it was an absolutely relentless year. So this year, I’m more cautious about the word I’m choosing. This year it’s Celebrate! I hope that brings plenty of Celebration into my world and celebrate with friends and family whenever the opportunity arises.
MOLESKIN:

So… It didn’t rain. Hats off to Mayberry for directing everyone up to the Pav-A-Lon anyway. We started late, ended late and most of the Q was pieced together as went along. As always, great to be out with the HIMs in the Gloom.

A friend told me that 2019 had a lot of hard times with a lot of precious moments in between. I couldn’t agree more. It was on some of those hardest days for me that I would happen to find a bracelet that my daughter made. It’s stored on the same hook as my keys and seemed to slip off when I grabbed them on the hardest of days. It says, “Pray”. Those beads stopped me and reminded me where my strength is found.

MOLESKIN:
You should have seen the boys’ face light up with each present. Who knew we could harmonize so well?
