CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I heard a passage on Sunday and then again on Monday when Kick Flip referenced it at Shamrock…
“Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.” (1 John 2:15-17)

God made this beautiful world and all of the good things in it, but the “from the world” John talks about in verse 16 is a reference to our hearts and the importance we place on those things and stuff.

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven….For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” John was talking about our hearts. Our treasure.

Another question that got me recently was “If someone were to ask your children what does your father love the most, or think the most about?” What would they say??

Life is fleeting. Think about the time you have left here and where you are investing it. Is it God honoring? Is it eternal or does it collect dust? Make your treasure something that matters!

Word 

  • “I don’t feel brave right now”
  • “That doesn’t mean you aren’t brave”
    • From a show my wife and I watch on Netflix called SWAT

Hear some things I’ve said, either verbally or mentally, over the past year, that go along with this. 

  • I don’t know if can do this
    • That doesn’t mean I can’t do this 
  • I don’t feel like I have what it takes 
    • That doesn’t mean I don’t have what it takes 
  • I don’t feel good enough 
    • That doesn’t mean I’m not good enough 
  • I don’t feel like I’m leading or serving well 
    • That doesn’t mean I’m not leading or serving well 

So I encourage you to think about the statements you say to yourself, either out loud or in the deepest parts of mind, and flip the script. 

Just because you feel a certain way, doesn’t mean you are a certain way. 

Feelings don’t always reflect reality.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Recently came back from a long road trip seeing the country, it was something I have long wanted to do and hoped at least one kid would be interested enough to do it also. This was something my parents never did with me and I wanted to be better and give a bit to my kids that my parents didn’t give to me. I also am getting no younger and didn’t want to run out of time by saying I will get there eventually.

Basically my message is close to something I shared with the PM group before heading out on this trip, but just to pick something this summer you have long wanted to do, whether it be a trip some thing local, or even something you wanted to try and do it. Answer the challenge this summer and do it. Share it with your kids or a loved one if you can and just do it. Don’t wait.
