Alex Cravens, the Youth Pastor at Butterfield Church in Russellville, Arkansas, recently posted.

Don’t feel sorry for or fear for your kids because the world they are going to grow up in is not what it used to be. God created them and called them for the exact moment in time that they’re in. Their life wasn’t a coincidence or an accident. Raise them up to know the power they walk in as children of God. Train them up in the authority of His Word. Teach them to walk in faith knowing that God is in control. Empower them to know they can change the world. Don’t teach them to be fearful and disheartened by the state of the world but hopeful that they can do something about it. Every person in all of history has been placed in the time that they were in because of God’s sovereign plan. He knew Daniel could handle the lion’s den. He knew David could handle Goliath. He knew Esther could handle Haman. He knew Peter could handle persecution. He knows that your child can handle whatever challenge they face in their life. He created them specifically for it! Don’t be scared for your children, but be honored that God chose you to parent the generation that is facing the biggest challenges of our lifetime. Rise up to the challenge. Raise Daniels, Davids, Esthers, and Peters! God isn’t scratching His head wondering what He’s going to do with this mess of a world. He has an army He’s raising up to drive back the darkness and make Him known all over the earth. Don’t let your fear steal the greatness God placed in them. I know it’s hard to imagine them as anything besides our sweet little babies, and we just want to protect them from anything that could ever be hard on them, but they were born for such a time as this.

Just think about this and then think about what your own kids have already accomplished in life … no matter their age.  In all likelihood, you will think of some pretty incredible stuff.  You will also believe that Alex Cravens post is spot on.  Don’t stop with that, let your kids know how incredible they are.  You might catch them off guard and best of all, you might inspire them to achieve greater things.

Pax partnered up with someone they felt was about as strong as they are. Starting at first line do 10 Blockees than bear crawl to the second line. At the second line do 10 Burpees than bear crawl back to first line. For the first time up and back both partners did bear crawl and then from then on did it Bear Brawl style where one partner pushed on the others shoulders while they crawled. Change the partner bear crawling and the partner providing resistance on each trip.

MARY:
Let the PAX choose and we did a bunch of ab exercises, can’t remember all of them.

8 HIMs literally pushed each other to be better this morning.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We can compare our life to a chest of drawers. We have a drawer for family, work, hobbies/activities, God, church, and other things. When we give the Sunday School answer we feel like we should order them something like God, family, hobbies/activities, and work. When we are real with ourselves it is probably more like work, family, hobbies/activities, God, and church. The problem is that those are both wrong. God deserves to be more than a drawer in our life. He should be the chest that the drawers are in. We can’t be the father and husband we are called to be unless we are in Christ. We can’t be the worker we are called to be unless we are in Christ. We can’t be the leader in our church and community we are called to be unless we are in Christ. So look inside yourself and ask, have I given God a drawer in my life or is He the chest my life is contained in?

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Men are known for having only 2 emotions: anger and sadness. Obviously, we are meant to have more emotional depth than that, so let’s look at the Bible for any examples. Our Lord, Jesus, is a great example of righteous anger. Anger not motivated by hate, but by justice. In America, we are known to be observers over actors. As men, we need to act when we see injustice. We need to get angry and do something about the wrongs done to others. With sadness, our Lord, Jesus, is again the perfect example. When Lazarus, His friend, died, Jesus wept. We can find solice in the fact that our King felt the same that we do over loss. We need to be able to express that and lean on one another in those times of sorrow.

Just a simple quote from Elisabeth Elliot but great words to ponder.

There is no perfect life, no perfect job, no perfect childhood, no perfect marriage, and no perfect set of people who will always do what we expect them to do.

What we have is a perfect God who is able to lead us through this imperfect life with unfailing strength, incomparable wisdom, and infinite love.
