CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Ash Wednesday is tomorrow. Let’s prepare of hearts and mind for the beginning of Lent as we progress toward Easter and the Resurrection.

As I thought about what to say today, the word sacrifice was on my mind. Growing up, many people made sacrifices for me including coaches, parents, teachers, pastors to get me where I am today. What can you sacrifice today to better yourself, others, or draw closer to God during this time. Things like greed, self doubt, addictions, or a relationship drag us down in this life. Maybe it’s time to let these things go.

We see sacrifice throughout the Bible. Abraham willing to sacrifice his son Isaac is a prime example of trust in God’s plan and putting his needs/ wants aside. The ultimate sacrifice is Jesus’s crucifixion for all of our sins so we can live with him for all eternity. While we may not be called to sacrifice these things in our lives, think about what you can sacrifice over the course of these next few months in this time of Lent. Try to better yourself, your neighbor, and draw closer to God in the process.

Ash Wednesday and beginning of Lent tomorrow.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
One of my favorite scripture readings is Isaiah 6:8. I try to incorporate it into my prayer life as often as I can.

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”

And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

Without hesitation Isaiah offers himself up to the Lord. May we ask God to use our skills and talents to change this world. Don’t wait on other people to fulfill a void that Gods calls YOU to fill. Ask God to send you into this world and do good for the Kingdom.

MOLESKIN:
Don’t exercise with wet bags of concrete.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We are all used to having instant gratification. Between 1 click shopping on Amazon delivered the next day, to not even having to go into grocery stores to get food anymore. Our gratification timeline does not line up with God’s. Time for him is nothing like it is for us. It’s hard for us to be patient for things when they come to us so quickly now. He has a plan for us and it’s going to happen on His timeline, not ours. Be patient, and the things that are meant to happen will happen when He planned for it.

19 Pax including a FNG and a 2.0!  Welcome Hundo!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
PT Barnum once said “Comfort is the enemy of progress.”…It’s only when we step outside our comfort zone that we truly improve.

Encourage and challenge the Pax to step out of their comfort zones

  • stepping up to Q a beatdown
  • stepping into leadership wit the Arsenal AO launch
  • Sign up and commit to your first 5K or Marathon
  • Maybe you have already done the above, how about an obstacle course? Hardship Hill plug 🙂
  • What about 50 miles….100? crazy! ya, but why not?!

Maybe this resonates more from a job standpoint for you, have you become complacent in your work environment, let this be a call out to dig for more!

If your walking in fear you not walking in faith
