Trusting God
Story of Joseph, when he found out that Mary was pregnant after he was engaged, was not his plan. He was confused, upset and I’m sure heartbroken. But God had a different plan for him. God‘s plans were way different than his. And God‘s plan is perfect. an angel came to Joseph, and let him know what his plan was. That he should stay with Mary and take her as his wife.
There’s been many times in my life where my plants have gone to the wayside, and God has shown me that he is in control and that he always knows more. Job example. Trust in God is not always easy, it may be confusing or tough. But we must trust God that he has a plan for our lives, and we must let him lead.

Look: Y’all don’t realize that it was all Paul and Linda that broke up The Beatles. Yoko is wildly misunderstood and one of the greatest artists of the 20th Century. She gifted us some amazing songs and shared her husband’s (can’t remember his name) musical gifts with the world. You should all be thankful for her that he was able to continue on after Paul stole the band away and broke it up.

Me and 6 of the best men I know

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Repeated the Word from Shamrock on Wednesday….

The inspiration for the Word came from Caveman.  Last time I led at Shamrock, I talked in the BOM about legacy.  Living in such a way that we leave the legacy that we want to leave.  After the workout, he made the comment, “What we do with our ‘dash’ matters….”.  What was he talking about?  He meant, that one day your body will be ash and there will be a tombstone with your name on it.  It will have the day you were born and the day that you died – and in between, there will be a DASH.  That dash represents today, this week, this year.  You are living that DASH.  What we do with our ‘dash’ matters.

  • Are you doing your utmost to use your precious few years wisely?
  • Perhaps there is a hatchet that needs to be buried
  • Perhaps there is a neglected relationship that needs investment.
  • Perhaps there is a bad habit you need to put to death
  • Perhaps there is a good habit you need to build into your lifestyle
  • Are you using your precious few years wisely?

Psalm 39:4-5, “Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered— how fleeting my life is. You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath.”

Psalm 90:12, “Teach us to number our days carefully so that we may develop wisdom in our hearts.”

MOLESKIN:

Loved being out there with you men!

Vice or Virtue? What will you choose?

https://www.inspiredoriginal.org/post/a-herculean-choice-virtue-or-vice

“Of all the real good Things that Heaven grants to Mortals, there is not any one that is to be attain’d without Application and Labour.”

It was not long, however, before Vice interrupted her and told Hercules that she could show him a shorter way to happiness.

In response, Virtue scolded Vice, saying:

“Tis true, you were of a Celestial Origin; but were [you] not cast out of the Society of the Gods? And have you not, ever since, been rejected by all the most worthy Men, even upon Earth? … On the contrary, My Conversation is with the Gods, and with good Men; and there is no good Work produc’d by either, without my Influence. I am respected above all Things, by the Gods themselves, and by all the best of Mortals.”

Virtue finished her speech with the claim that all of her followers “look back with Comfort on their past Actions; and delight themselves in their present Employments. By my means, they are favour’d by the Gods; belov’d by their Friends; and honour’d by their Country: And when the appointed period of their Lives is come, they are not lost in a dishonourable Oblivion; but flourish in the Praises of Mankind, even to the latest Posterity.”
