2019 has been a tough year among our F3 brotherhood – we have dealt with illness, injury, death.  In light of that and also in light of the Christmas season I decided to share several scriptures of encouragement to remind us that GOD is ultimately in control and we can find our rest in him.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.  But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
James 1:2‭-‬5 NASB
Many times we answer with knowledge instead of wisdom. Wisdom includes listening to anothers words and feelings and responding if necessary. Many times no response is needed, the person just needed to be heard. Wisdom is required for the trials we face, we need to be willing to ask for it and have the patience to receive it.

With my son working on his vehicle trying to keep it going as long as possible it gets frustrating when you think you’ve fixed one problem then you notice another problem.  He’s persevering and learning.  In life if we aren’t seeing progress, answered prayers, etc.  Don’t give up, keep pushing, working hard doing the right things.  Eventually we will see progress and we learn a lot on the journey.

Prayed for the guys at the Goliath at the Gorge.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Spoke about the use of the term “remember” in Genesis. As a verb the Hebrew word “Zakar” means “to remember”, but as a noun it means “male”. We were made to bear the image of God and to remember Him, but the Old Testament gives a detailed record of Israel’s failure to do so. So just as we remember to set alarms and set out clothes, we should be men who remember God and who we were designed to be
MOLESKIN:
Pray for Drive Thru and his wife as they are trying to conceive and have just begun therapy, Midas for exam grades, and myself and my wife as we try to buy our first home.
