We had a clear sky, meteors or shooting stars, and a fantastic sunrise. The discussion today was on courage, and the relationship to fear and how that balance impacts is. Each week proves to share wisdom and impact is in ways that apply daily. The application for me was for the discipline with what the Qsource calls the Queen which is the diet. Exercising discipline in this area can make you a more effective leader. For spellcheck, learning about grace , as defined in the qsource as this… when “Grace is keeping your head when everyone around you is losing theirs and blaming it on you.” This is applicable in his life presently, and the value of discussing this wisdom with Christ following men is proving to be invaluable!

Triple Q Fail, triple confessions:

1) I would like to say I was following in the footsteps of my predecessor Crawdad (Robbi Dickens) and I took the week to meditate on last week’s Q before posting the backblast. But the truth is I went home after the workout and immediately started working on the yard, which I do not care about. Spent all day on it and was too tired to post this.

2) I like to get a little chatter going when I’m Qing, you know? But we went up everest and were generally on the move so much that I was out of breath and couldn’t say a whole lot. And we didn’t even get to the Jack Webb I had planned 🙁

3) I forgot our FNG’s name. Little Roll? Double Wide his potential brother in law will have to remember if/when Jason Sutton comes back.

Great work by all and awesome encouragement on the run

COT: Last week Lil’ Spice mentioned a Christian artist named Andrew Peterson. I recognized the name, not by music but by his writing. He wrote a 4 book miniseries entitled The Wingfeather Saga that tells the tale of a family of kids who must learn about life in the midst of strife.
In one chapter an idea struck as very poignant. The idea is to be the Moon in the darkness. To be a light for those who are struggling. I talked about how the moon has many phases that shows different brightness. We also reflect that same brightness, sometimes Full, sometimes waxing or waning and sometimes new and just showing a sliver. Sometimes it’s obvious that we are good men, husbands, fathers, leaders and other times when we struggle to see a way for ourselves. So when you’re bright, shine for those who struggle and when you struggle find that bright light and ask for help.
Guardrail also mentioned that the moon doesn’t provide light but gives off the reflection of the sun, so, in this metaphor, be a reflection of the Son.

Prayers for those struggling through what life has going on including cancer, health, storm recovery and so much more
