THE THANG: Broad jump across Hardin Valley to Award Winning hill climb for 10 Kick throughs at each light pole, repeat with 10 Merkins, then Catch me if you can across the top for some ab work while star gazing.

COT: Therefore let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall.1 Corinthians 10:12

Tucker Blakely, 29 years old. Killed in the line of duty. News says Matthew Rose got in a domestic fight with his wife, cops get called, he shoots Officer Blakely, gets killed himself. 5 yr old son left fatherless.
Tragic. Close to home and it should wake us up.
This was no accident. Accident is tripping on the sidewalk or falling at soccer and needing stitches.
There are 2 ditches we can fall in as we process this.
1: It will never happen to me 2: Thinking there is nothing we can do to prevent it… a 3rd would be ignoring it.
Don’t think that you are above accountability, needing some guardrails or that we can go alone.
Speculation, but Matthew didn’t get there overnight – this wasn’t the first fight or outburst.
Don’t think you can just have a pet “socially acceptable” secret sin.
Take heed; know your own brokenness; share that with a Brother
Invite a neighbor to F3, to your church, to your backyard – and love them enough to tell them hard truths.
let yourself feel sad about this but don’t stop there. be a HIM to someone who needs it.
But Jesus doesn’t call us to live in fear of “an accident” He walks with us through temptation
No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

COT: Windshield and the rear view mirror. Spend more time focused on future instead of worrying about passed. “Not that I have already obtained this or am already perfect, but I press on to make it my own, because Christ Jesus has made me his own. Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.”

What if there was nothing remarkable about you EXCEPT…except for your faith?
You didn’t go to a fancy college, maybe you didn’t even graduate high school.
Your job, well, it only pays for your daily bread. Retirement…you are going to work the rest of your life
Sports, you are the kid that they pick last.
You’re ugly, your spouse is ugly, even your dog is ugly

What if there was nothing remarkable about you…except for your faith?
Are you the person people come to with their Bible questions or ask for your prayers on their behalf?
Maybe you pause a conversation with a church friend or a family member to chase down a visitor before they sneak out.
Maybe you’re the type to spend a couple of hours in the parking lot with a brother or sister who just needs to get something off of their chest.
Perhaps you are the one who serves without being asked. You recognize a need and you take care of it because you know how hard it is for some people to accept help.
What if there was nothing remarkable about you…except for your faith?

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: Shame
– Genesis 3: sin entered the world. Man’s reaction = feel shame, hide, cover up with fig leaves.
– God’s reaction: call man out of shame, cover with skin of animals (sacrificed an animal)
– Jesus: experienced ultimate shame – hanged and killed (naked) on a tree. He not only felt deep shame, but he bore our sin and shame on the tree.
– Our response? If we confess our sin He is faithful and just to cleanse of us all un-righteousness. First, bring shame to God, then talk to other trusted men.
