CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This Q was way harder by myself on Sunday.  It was much easier with the group.  Life is the same way.  So many times we try to do things on our own and we don’t rely on God.  We try and try ourselves and when we fail, then we turn to God.  We need to put God in everything we do and rely on him to carry us and let his will be done, not ours.  Life is much better with God in it, and not doing it by ourselves.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
In life there are physical storms like people have experienced with Hurricane Florence.  We should prepare for those with things like insurance, etc…   Just like those storms, we will face storms of life.  As men, we tend to try to do things alone, but we need to have brothers/close friends/accountability partners that we can turn to and rely on when those storms come.  We shouldn’t face things alone and should have someone we can be 100% open with.
MOLESKIN:
It was great to welcome a FNG this morning, aka Right Guard.  Prayers for Herbie’s daughter still trying to recover from sickness and for A-Rod doing the HTL this weekend.

Preparation begins when it is only us by ourselves in the cold, dark evenings and mornings.  Conference champions and other podium finishes do not happen automatically they are built with discipline.

Repetition is always the precondition for success.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Temptation…it gets to all of us.  Key is to try to not not focus on the temptation…that only makes your brain think about it more. Rather, you should replace the temptation with a positive thought.  Temptation can drive your emotion, which drives your thoughts, which drives your actions, which determine who you are.
