Hardship Hill tomorrow. You can participate, come out and cheer others on, or donate to the Wounded Warriors Campaign.

COT:
You know there have been a lot of times when I have not enjoyed what we were doing out here. Sometimes it’s due to injury, sometimes it’s due to lack of sleep, sometimes it’s due to poor decisions the night before, sometimes it’s due to illness, and sometimes it’s just hard!
Sometimes it’s a combination of all these things. But I’ve never regretted it afterwards!
And I feel like I always leave better. Thank you guys for pushing me and allowing me to push you. Just show up! Mentally, physically, spiritually, for your family, your jobs, your church, show up! Whether you feel like it or not, it will become a habit and we need men like you!

“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.”

COT:
Thinking back to the beginning of the year, we had a lot of thoughts on intentionality and focus. How’s that working out for everybody?

Do you find yourself drifting or spending too much time getting caught up in things on your phone? Are you spending dedicated moments with your kids or your spouse or your family?

I constantly think about these things in an effort to show up. As we talked about through the work out, showing up can be the first big hurdle to get through. Your kids or the other person will see that first before any other action that you do.

Verse of the day in the Bible app talks about servant leadership and giving back to others.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.”
‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5‬:‭11‬ ‭ESV‬‬
bible.com/bible/59/1th.5.11.ESV

So I was reading though the Bible app, and in the New Testament plan I’ve gone through in April, one of the last few days had an encouragement at the end of it with the work Build. That made me think about the common saying that in every interaction, you are with building up or tearing down the relationship. I think parallel to this is the distinction between an abundance mindset vs a scarcity mindset. Abundance is understanding that we have all we need and living a life of gratefulness. Scarcity is based in fear, but it is manifested in thinking we don’t have enough, aren’t enough, those around us are harming us.. it’s a very self centered and dark mindset. Even through the trials we all have from time to time, we are living in abundance, and refocusing our hearts to understanding that can reshape how we interact with those around us daily. When we recognize our own abundance, I think its more natural to build up those around us.
Consider your abundance, and build up someone today.
