I blew up at my family this week during vacation.  Ashamed of myself but I reached out to buddies in f3 as a confession and to seek advice.   They responded with great council and wisdom that I was able to follow and ask for forgiveness from my family .  Don’t be afraid to admit mistakes and reach out to the men in f3 .  It’s a humbling experience but worth it!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I don’t have the answers to why people believe, worship, pray but yet get sick, hurt, etc. when those without faith often do not seem to have those problems.  I get frustrated because I see people battling cancer every day and dying.  I know I won’t have all of the answers in my current life but my lack of understanding in why bad things happen concerns me and stresses me out.

I asked for prayers of the men there today.  Several have reached out since the Q to let them know they are thinking about me and will forward any articles, etc. they come across.

The beauty of F3 is we can share our hopes and dreams along with our struggles. Thank each of you for your willingness to get out in the gloom to exercise our mind and body.  We’re better because of each other!

Isaiah 41:10 – Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Jeremiah 33:6 – Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security.

James 5:15 – And the prayer of faith will save the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

Psalm 41:3 – The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.

Jeremiah 30:17 – For I will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal, declares the Lord, because they have called you an outcast: ‘It is Zion, for whom no one cares!’

Matthew 11:28 – Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Proverbs 24
1 Judge impartially
To show partiality in judging is not good’ (v.23b). For those who judge justly, ‘rich blessing will come upon them’ (v.25).
2 Speak honestly
An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips’ (v.26). Sometimes it is hard to speak the truth in love, but we need to be honest with one another. The best answer you can give to any question asked is an honest one!
3 Stay loyal
Don’t talk about your neighbours behind their backs – no slander or gossip, please’ (v.28, MSG). Anyone can stay true to your face but it is the people who stay true behind your back that really count.
4 Show restraint
The temptation to pay back those who have done us harm is very great. However, the writer of Proverbs warns against taking revenge: ‘Do not say, “I’ll do to them as they have done to me; I’ll pay them back for what they did”’ (v.29).
5 Work hard
The book of Proverbs often warns against laziness. ‘A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest – and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man’ (vv.33–34).
