Men we need to kill last period I have been working all my adult life in battling lust period however I’ve come to realize that I’ve been more serving lust than killing it period John Piper once said you must be killing sin orcin will be killing you. It’s rung true with me this year as I consider the ways that lust destroys. I come from a broken home where my dad looked at pornography all of his life and never tried to fight or walk in the light. I know what pornography’s end is and that is death. I spoke to a much older wiser man and asked him how does he fights in period he told me that when he was given his sons The Lord used that to stir up a hatred for pornography he wanted to one day look at his sons in the eye and say I do not struggle with pornography I hate pornography. Additionally he raised the value of his wife in their home period he made much of her he laid down his life for her he spoke highly of her period he sought her out thought of her talk to her. And by God’s grace he says he was able to build a true hatred for pornography. I’d encourage you all to think about could you look your sons in the eye and say I don’t struggle with pornography. I know that’s not the case in my life and I’m praying daily that God stirs up hatred so that one day a I may be able to do that.

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.”

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.
