17 strong today!  Bonus points to Judge Judy for joining me on the ruck this morning!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

My challenge to everyone this year to is to Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable! Do this personally, physically, and spiritually.  For those who have never been on Q, take that next step and lead. If you have not been to other AOs for a workout, go to all the AOs. Try a Saturday workout which is an hour long or go the Burbs for a longer beatdown. Personally, talk to someone different at work or try to repair a fractured relationship. Spiritually, set a positive example for others and be a witness to someone who needs it (Jude Judy recently started a bible study group). We tend to be complacent and get in routines.  Break that routine and do something different this year.

MOLESKIN:
Prayer requests for Gump and his family as his wife recovers from surgery and son recovers from broken foot/leg.

Fourteen men and one mighty dog named “Tank” who belongs to Abscess.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

A number of us have been going through some difficult times right now.  We need to know that God is there for us during hard times.  We can turn to him for rest and strength.  It may not end our suffering immediately but it is good to know that God cares for us and God, through Jesus Christ, has suffered too, even dying on the cross for us.  I have listed a few bible verses that might be good to think of during difficult times.

Isaiah 41:10 ESV

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

John 16:33 ESV

I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”

Psalm 9:9-10 ESV

The Lord is a stronghold for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble. And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek you.

Romans 5:3-5 ESV

More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.

Philippians 4:13 ESV

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Brother, if you are going through trials at this time, may the Lord strengthen you.

Shared my word for the year.  TIME.  Come to find out La-Z-Boy shared the same thing the day before at RAW.  My word came over the holidays as I read the book One Word.  It currently represents me being intentional with my time.  Being around (and present) with my M, the 2.0’s and others in my life.  Let’s see where God will takes me this year.
