CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The way I developed this workout was to challenge everyone in areas that they might not feel the strongest like running, pull ups, or shoulder work.

This led me to think about a native American proverb about the constant battle within ourselves.

An old Cherokee is teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.”

 He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.”

The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?”

The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.”

It’s our choice everyday of which wolf we feed. So day by day, we can decide to feed the good in ourselves and starve the bad. And this might seem like the bad would go away, but when you starve a wolf, it only gets more aggressive, meaning the bad in ourselves can become harder and harder to suppress. But by continuing to keep focus on the good and turning your weaknesses into strengths can we be guided to a better version of ourselves in our faith, a better version of ourselves in our marriage, for our children.

I know you all made that choice to become better by showing up today, so all I ask is to continue through the rest of the day making the same decisions because we have no idea what tomorrow will bring.

I recently asked my 5yo “What’s your favorite Bible story we’ve read recently?”

”Day one.”

”What’d you like about that?”

”Well, it was dark and then God said let there be light and there was & that’s pretty amazing.”

This was a good reminder to me that amazing encounters and experiences are all around, I just don’t always pay attention.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
As we all know, recently there has been a lot of division in our country. One thing I know that is true is that when I am looking inward only at myself and my needs, I am incapable of seeing and meeting the needs of another. I also know when I put myself before them, I am being selfish. Self-seeking individuals with selfish motives take, keep and divide. However, true outward expressed servant leadership seeks to further the welfare of another and unites.

Each exercise took place at a light pole because as F3 Men and Leaders we are called to be a LIGHT to those around us. Respecting every individual for their uniqueness and creating unity instead of division. Each PAX is as special and unique as the exercise they called out today and the reps performed according to their age. We must celebrate our differences!

The Circle Burp signified that in spite of all of our difficulties and challenges we face (and sometimes those come at the hands of another imposing them upon us), we are all needed in order to make each other better and stronger. I am better because of you, not in spite of you.

The Group Indian Run was intentional in order to create unity and to illustrate that sometimes you lead from the front and sometimes you lead from the back. You must take time to look around you to see who is with you and if anyone is following. Over the next few days, weeks or months pay attention to who you are leading and who you are following.

The BIG QUESTION IS: Where are you going? Why would anyone want to go with you? (John Maxwell) If you look around and no one is with you, you may want to ask yourself if you are truly being a light? Are you serving others, or just self- seeking? Are you dividing or are you uniting?

Looking back over my 10 years of being married I have regularly found myself in all of the steadfastness of Christ in our lives. I encourage everyone to look at the steadfastness of Christ in your life and your spouse or significant other or children. I’m thankful for the steadfastness of Christ who stands in her place in front of God the father and beside us pleading in front of the holy seat. Encourage you to look back on your life and see the faithfulness of God!
