CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience; bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you. Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body; and be thankful. Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God. Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.” Colossians 3:12‭‭-‬17 NASB1995

All of what we do should be to glorify God. This should be in every aspect of our lives: work, family, entertainment, how we treat each other, how take care of our bodies, etc. It shouldn’t be about what we want but what God wants.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
It’s pretty easy to come up with a Q. I jacked this one from the #backblast channel. It came from @Rooney at the Asylum. It’s great to come up with new workouts as well. I typically will take pieces from different workouts and make them my own.

What do you see when you look in the mirror?
How do you talk to yourself?
Do you say things like, “I’ll never be able to do that…” or is it more like, “I can do anything I put my mind to!” or “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

95% of your emotions are determined by how you talk to yourself. – Zac Stephen’s

Too many Christians are not looking for Peace in God, but pieces of God.

Choosing what’s convenient for what they have going on right now, instead of basking in the peace God offers, once surrender your heart to him.

The God of Second Chances
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the hopper, the destroyer, and the cutter, my great army, which I sent among you.
Joel 2:25 ESV
You may be going through your own set of “swarming locusts” (disappointments, failures, trials), but this verse shows how God, who even at times may bring these “locusts,” is faithful and true and will restore you in His perfect timing.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;”-1 Corinthians 13:4‭-‬6 NASB1995

I thought I would share this passage as a reminder to us all how we should act. We need to remember to act with humility in all we do – no bragging. We should act honorably and think of others needs before our own. We should not keep a tally of all that someone has wronged us, but we should truly forgive. We should rejoice in the Truth.

MOLESKIN:

21 Tips for a Positive New Year

Updated for 2022

  1. Stay Positive. You can listen to the cynics and doubters and believe that success is impossible or you can trust that with faith and an optimistic attitude all things are possible.
  2. Take a daily “Thank You Walk.” You can’t be stressed and thankful at the same time. Feel blessed and you won’t be stressed.
  3. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and less foods manufactured in plants.
  4. Talk to yourself instead of listen to yourself. Instead of listening to your complaints, fears and doubts, talk to yourself with words of truth and encouragement.
  5. Post a sign that says “No Energy Vampires Allowed.” Gandhi said, “I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet,” and neither should you!
  6. Be a Positive Team Member. Being positive doesn’t just make you better, it makes everyone around you better.
  7. Don’t chase success. Decide to make a difference and success will find you.
  8. Get more sleep. You can’t replace sleep with a double latte.
  9. Don’t waste your precious energy on gossip, energy vampires, issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control.
  10. Look for opportunities to Love, Serve and Care. You don’t have to be great to serve but you have to serve to be great.
  11. Live your purpose. Remember why you do what you do. We don’t get burned out because of what we do. We get burned out because we forget why we do it.
  12. Remember, there’s no such thing as an overnight success. Love the process and you’ll love what the process produces.
  13. Trust that everything happens for a reason and expect good things to come out of challenging experiences.
  14. Implement the No Complaining Rule. If you are complaining, you’re not leading.
  15. Read more books than you did in 2021.

16. Don’t seek happiness. Instead live with love, passion and purpose and happiness will find you.

  1. Focus on “Get to” vs “Have to.” Each day focus on what you get to do, not what you have to do. Life is a gift not an obligation.
  2. The next time you “fail” remember that it’s not meant to define you. It’s meant to refine you.
  3. Smile and laugh more. They are natural anti-depressants.
  4. Boost your immune system and health. Eat wild salmon, turmeric, blueberries. Take vitamin C, D and zinc.
  5. Enjoy the ride. You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and enjoy it.
