CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
So what’s the #1 commandment? Put God first.
What did Jesus say was the 2nd most important commandment?
Love thy neighbor as much as you love thyself.
Why is this so difficult?! That’s a question. Why?!
Our neighbor doesn’t necessarily mean our next door neighbor. It could be anyone we encounter.
The truth is, we don’t know what someone is going through and a simple act of kindness or a smile can be a game changer.
I challenge you to be kind to everyone you encounter this week. Volunteer your time to help someone , give blood, a simple smile can go a long way. Do it even if you don’t get a “Thank you” or a smile back. That’s not why you’re doing this!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Prov 6:16-19
16There are six things that the Lord hates,
seven that are an abomination to him:
17 haughty eyes, a lying tongue,
and hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked plans,
feet that make haste to run to evil,
19 a false witness who breathes out lies,
and one who sows discord among brothers.

MOLESKIN:
Anger should be controlled except in the area of sin; we should hate sin as much as God does.  Direct your anger towards sin (not the sinner) and realize how important that is in part of the sanctification process – abhor sin in the way our Father does and we’ll be less likely to repeat it.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I missed my Marathon goal and I have had to process through it. I was very disappointing but I have to decide how to respond.

First keep things in perspective:
“For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.”
‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭NIV‬‬
https://www.bible.com/111/1ti.4.8.niv

Second, when the results matter more than a marathon time, do your best and leave the results up to God:
“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.”
‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭2:15‬ ‭NIV‬‬
https://www.bible.com/111/2ti.2.15.niv

11 took on this “pain and simple workout” (See what I did there?)😜
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I Pet. 2:9-10 NASB

“But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a hold nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of the darkness into His marvelous light; for you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.”

The King James renders “a people of God’s own possession” as “a peculiar people”. We are set apart and different because we belong to God. Therefore, what should be look like? Should we act differently than those who are not God’s possession? The Bible teaches that we should be different. Think about how you behave around people who are not believers. Can they tell that you act differently? That you have a higher moral standard? If there is nothing about how we present ourselves to the world that looks different, then we have some work to do. We should stand out in a crowd in the way that we act. This is my challenge. Ask yourself this, “Do the people around me know that I am a follower of Christ by the way I act? If the answer is “no”, then work on making changes to make yourself “peculiar”.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
It was just a short word because of the downpour that was going on. My challenge was first to consider writing out Scripture as a part of your devotion. It has really helped me slow down, see more about the Word and understand it better as a whole. I just finished writing out Hebrews and we are going through Hebrews 11 in our youth group. So, the passage I read was Hebrews 11:24-26:

“24 By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh’s daughter. 25 He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.”

Moses could have had anything he wanted, he had access to every luxury known to man at this time. He was the son of the king of Egypt, a world power at the time. He had all this comfort, wealth, anything he wanted, but he saw that these pleasures, these sins were just temporary, they were fleeting. And he understood Christ and the reward that He brought. It might not have been immediate to him and, ultimately, he didn’t even get to go into the land that the Lord called him to, but he understood that following Christ meant more than earthly rewards. It meant heavenly, eternal rewards that are far greater than anything this world can offer.

So, the challenge is pretty simple. As HIMs, we should seek to forsake the fleeting pleasures of sin and follow the One who can promise eternal rewards.
