BOM: Lent is a 40 day season of repentance and renewal to ready ourselves to remember and celebrate the heart of the Christian gospel: the death and resurrection of Jesus (Good Friday and Easter). Lamentations 3: 1-8 & 21-24

At times we all enter periods of suffering. In those times it may feel like God is against you, that he is causing your suffering, and that he is ignoring your prayers. When this is the case, remember that he sent his one and only son to earth to die for our sins. Jesus suffered the ultimate suffering in order to enter into our suffering and pull us out of it.

Even through the tears of suffering, maintain hope in Jesus’ work on the cross, and the love that shows he has for us.

Moleskin:  Solid workout for Archie’s VQ!!  Looking forward to his next one.  The mumble chatter was good, the effort was great!  Way to go, Men!!

BOM: Heart of a Warrior.

From the book, “Fight: Winning the Battles That Matter Most”, by Craig Groeschel, God has given us each a heart of a warrior. An inward, natural desire to stand up for what’s pure and true.  A warrior must have a cause to fight for or he will find the wrong thing to fight against.  You may not think of yourself as a warrior. You’re laid back. Everything is cool, no worries.  You may think you don’t even have a reason to fight.  Well, consider this.  “You’re already in a fight, whether you know it or not. Your spiritual enemy wants to take you out.  He’s a master at making strong men weak.  Sometimes he does that by making us comfortable, secure, and safe, resigned to a mediocre life because it’s familiar and doesn’t require much from us.  Is that really how you want to live.”  –Craig Groeschel

Remember this… God is in the business of making weak men strong.  If we call on HIm, He will equip his warriors with strength and purpose.

Moleskin:  The PAX showed up strong and mostly on time.  Pushed hard, encouraged one another.  Great morning at the JUCO!

BOM

Calling on the name of God. Exodus 3:14 “God said to Moses, “I Am that I Am.” And He said “Say this to the people of Israel, ‘I Am has sent me to you.”

When we describe ourselves we say “I am tired”, “I am not a leader”, “I am the boss” or “I am awesome”. We are calling the name of God every time.  If we are weak or tired, we have called on the name of God.  If we have accomplished some great task that we are proud of, we have called on the name of God.  Remember that it is God that gives us strength, quenches our thirst and helps us to accomplish everything we do.

Great morning to start the week off right!   The satellite pictures I studied in developing the plan did not show that the parking lot was sloped!  The men all gave 100%.
