CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
You are either growing or dying. Stepping outside your comfort zone is key to discovering your passion, accomplishing your goals and finding happiness. Start with small steps to get out of your comfort zone to keep growing. “One can choose to go back toward safety or forward toward growth. Growth must be chosen again and again; fear must be overcome again and again.” Abraham Maslow

Reminder to all of us that self-reliance is a trap, we cannot trust in our own flesh and in our own ability to solve all our problems. Blessings come from above and not from our own ability to make things happen.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

1 John 4:18 – There is no fear in love.  But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.  The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

Today will most likely be the final time I Q in F3 Knoxville.  This week, my wife and I will be moving to the Atlanta Metro area to start a new chapter in our lives.  As the verse says above, we do not fear this change and are looking forward to it because everything has worked out how it was meant to.  The process for us to get to this point our lives has been very frustrating and stressful at times.  However, if things hadn’t worked out the way they did, I would have never been exposed to F3 and had the opportunity to meet and get better with all of you over the last few months.  For that, I am extremely grateful and consider myself lucky to have had that opportunity.

MOLESKIN:

Bonus points to Judge Judy and Spotter for joining me on the preruck!  I encourage some new people to give the preruck a shot.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We listened to a bunch of music today that I listened to in high school.  It’s great music and often brings back memories of the trouble I got into as a kid.  Therefore the BOM was quoted from Ecclesiastes chapters 11-12.  Basically it talks about the fact that men will enjoy the time of their youth, however we also need to be aware that we will ultimately be held accountable for our actions.  The only way to avoid this judgement is to accept Christ as your personal savior and let his death, burial and resurrection take the place of your punishment.
