CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
You have seen it in posts, heard someone say it or possibly someone call you one. HIM, or High Impact Man, is what we strive to be to our spouses, kids, family, community etc.. I am impressed daily with F3 and the HIMs in this group. I’ve seen selflessness, giving, sacrifices, hard work, time , and love freely given by this group. F3 Knoxville is huge. What would happen if all of our members would mirror these attributes? You have heard the phrase that 10% of the people do 90% of the work. It is very true. Sadly people in this world talk a big game but rarely step up and get their hands dirty. F3 is different. WE ARE MORE THAN JUST A WORKOUT. We do and not say. I’m very happy to be a part of F3 Knoxville and get to see HIMs in action.

But there is always opportunity to step up. Ask yourself, what have I done for others in the last 6 months? When was the last time I gave up my time for others? If you have to think about it for more than a minute, then there is opportunity to be a better HIM. Life is busy, we have lots of things on our plate, but there’s always time to help others. So this week dig deep and find out where you can be a blessing to someone else.

11 HIMs (Pondzi and Dusty included but their tags are not showing up)

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
My kids have to do burpees as punishment for bad behavior. It occurred to me that I needed to do burpees for my own bad behavior. As a parent, I’ve gotten good at recognizing bad behavior in my kids and dealing with it, but I’ve probably gotten worse at recognizing my own bad behavior and dealing with it. Plus, if my 12 year old can do 130 straight burpees once and 100 straight burpees another time, then I/we could at least do 100 divided into groups of 25 with a 1/4-mile break in between. Next time, I may go up to 50 burpees followed by two laps, rinse and repeat. Or maybe 100 burpees followed by four laps. We can’t be outdone by a 12 year old, can we? (I may not be asked/allowed to Q for a while.)

MOLESKIN:
Prayers for Ribbed’s wife and Lillydipper’s wife.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

James 3:17-18 — “But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.”

An encouragement to HIMs to model wisdom for our kids, co-workers, family, and friends. We need men who are wise and display true wisdom in how they interact, love, and care for those around them.
