Matthew 5:43-48 – love your enemies as well as neighbors.  God doesn’t play favorites like we as humans tend to do sometimes.  Strive to be “perfect” like God and treat even our enemies with love and we might just win them over to follow the Lord.
MOLESKIN:
This workout was meant to be a pyramid, but due to YHC’s forgetfulness, no one had a chance.  YHC meant to have a nice large-print page with all the exercises written down so that everyone could move at their own pace.  Instead, we were limited to a cell phone.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:

None today.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We are in the season of Pentecost. As Christians, we have the Holy Spirit to help us carry on the mission. On the original day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit enabled Christians to communicate to people of many different languages. That lead to the follow word from Peter:
“And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is for you and for plpyour children and for all who are far off, everyone whom the Lord our God calls to himself.” And with many other words he bore witness and continued to exhort them, saying, “Save yourselves from this crooked generation.” So those who received his word were baptized, and there were added that day about three thousand souls.”
‭‭Acts 2:38-41 ESV‬‬
https://www.bible.com/59/act.2.38-41.esv
As Christians today, we need to maintain an awareness of what work the Holy Spirit has for us to do. Empowered by the knowledge provided in the Bible, carry on God’s plan in the lives of the people around you.

Proverbs 13:20 Walk with the wise and become wise, for a companion of fools suffers harm.

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.

John 15:12-3 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 

Proverbs 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.

MOLESKIN:

My wife just celebrated her 30th high school reunion and mine is this weekend in Texas.  It’s made us think about our long friendships with people but also think about our more recent friends that are so important to us.  For me, I know the HIMs I’ve met in F3 would do just about anything for me just like I would for them.  Friendships are important and can take a lot of work and effort but they are important so let’s all try to be better friends and be intentional with our relationships with old friends and new ones!

I’m out for a week. Commission has the JUCO flag.

Please remember to find a date to Q in June!
