“Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. Do not fear what they fear; do not be frightened. But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,”

Be the light of Christ to the world and people around you. Regardless of situation and bad attitude. We have the promise of the eternal promised land.

  • Priorities
    • Many think your time reflects your priorities (often true)
    • For many in this circle, your time may not reflect your priorities; it may reflect your lack of priorities or your weakness in setting priorities
    • The squeaky wheel gets my time and attention
    • This is a lack of ability to set boundaries and defend your time
    • Jesus served? Yes – Jesus also prioritized his messages and his actions
    • As HIM we are capable, willing and have the heart to serve in so many ways that we can’t do it all.
    • Do you have an set of priorities well establish that guide your life?
    • Are they reflected in what you DON’T DO as well as what you DO?

Pray for Nashville’s shooting victims. This morning at a small group I’m a part of one of the older guys said that you were going to see a lot of blame start to happen because of this weather it is gun control or stuff about the shooter, being transgender or the lack of security, and all this stuff. But really what it is, is that we live in a fallen world and its sin.

Do we need better precautions and things in place to protect our kids and be more responsible as citizens of this earth? Absolutely but we need Jesus even more. 

Check out these powerful lyrics, from the song “Never Let Go” by Seventh Day Slumber. I was listening to this on the way to the workout tonight and these lyrics hit really hard:

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of deathYour perfect love is casting out fearAnd even when I’m caught in the middle of the storms of this lifeI won’t turn backI know You are near
And I will fear no evilFor my God is with meAnd if my God is with meWhom then shall I fear?Whom then shall I fear?
Oh no, You never let goThrough the calm and through the stormOh no, You never let goIn every high and every lowOh no, You never let goLord, You never let go of me
And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds onA glorious light beyond all compareAnd there will be an end to these troublesBut until that day comesWe’ll live to know You here on the earth

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17

MOLESKIN:
Goo Nation often touts living in the Comfort Zone as effective Self-Care and is a safe place to retreat from Involuntary Hardship. In an attempt to handle the stress of life that wears on us, we can often choose to retreat to our Comfort Zone and become isolated, dull, and ineffective Sad Clowns.

In this fallen world, we will face Involuntary Hardship (negative stress). Struggles (and even tragedies) at work, in our families, and in our communities will always be present. Life will always be hard to one degree or another. Instead of choosing to live life hiding in the Comfort Zone, we can choose Voluntary Hardship (positive stress). Voluntary Hardship sharpens us and refines us. Voluntary Hardship can look like consistency in the Gloom, having a mentor or accountability partner who hold our feet to the fire, or living in the 3rd F by serving others and a cause greater than ourselves. Voluntary Hardship builds resiliency and makes us stronger and more capable to withstand the Involuntary Hardship that will come.

As Proverbs 27:17 states, one of the best ways to sharpen our blades with Voluntary Hardship is in relationship with other HIMs. We are called to push each other to be better. In this morning’s workout, we literally pushed each other to grow stronger. HIMs pull Sad Clowns out of their Comfort Zone, but HIMs also push other HIMs to accelerate their growth.

The challenge this morning is to not buy the lie that the way to a good life is by eliminating all stress. The challenge is to examine our lives and find where we need more Voluntary Hardship. More specifically, where do we need to be sharpened by our fellow HIMs and where can we help sharpen others? How can we use Voluntary Hardship to refit, retrain, and refocus after a season of Involuntary Hardship?
