Heb 10:24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
Eccl 4:9 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. 10 For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!

Isaiah 44:1-8

Isaiah 44:6

Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:

I am the first and I am the last; besides me there is no god.

Excerpt from New Morning Mercies:

If God is in control of every aspect of your world and his grace covers all your sin, why would you ever give way to fear?

  • Paul David Tripp; New Morning Mercies

The reason we might is we forget the sovereignty of God. We forget He is in control. When we focus on the world around us, it becomes really big and God becomes small. The problems around us overwhelm us.
Today be reminded of who God is, that he’s in control and if we’re in him, he’s covered all our sin.

We have no reason to fear, besides Him these is no god.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
2 years and 2 months ago, David Greer became Kick-Flip. (He pointed out that I was on Q that day!) Today we know him as a man of character, a leader among men. When he leads, he’s creative, he’s personal, he pushes us. He serves us by leading. So many of his Qs are memorable, the workout, the word, his leadership and drive, his friendship and encouragement. We are all better men because of him and we are glad to give him the Shovel Flag as our AOQ at the Project.
Maybe one of you will be AOQ after him. I hope you will all step up to Q soon. Just as we need Kick-Flip to show up, we all need you/each other to show up. It’s not only how we get better as men and leaders, it’s how we see and experience the diversity and creativity of God in fitting us together, in both our leading and our following. Your strengths pushes us in our weakness and vice versa. We are all disciples, followers/fellow travelers, friends, of Jesus. In Christian friendship, we disciple each other. We encourage each other. We call each other higher up and further in. Friendship is discipleship when Christ is in you. When you Q, you both lead and serve the men around you as friends. It is both friendship and servant leadership.

MOLESKIN:
Much appreciation to Judge and guys from other AOs who came to support and celebrate the passing of the The Project Shovel Flag to Kick-Flip. Shout out to Trolley who began the tradition of taking the picture at the Friendship Bell.

PRAYER:

Ribbed’s wife, men at Equalizer and other AOs whose marriages are struggling, Kick-Flip’s wife and new baby on the way
