This month, billions of people around the world will celebrate the birth of a Jewish baby in a town in a land that they don’t think Jews lived in before 1948.

The current conflict (and past and future ones) were foretold in Genesis to Abraham by God. He promised that the decedents of his 2 sons would fight until the end times.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: F3RoCo is open for business
COT: Be present! Not only physically but mentally. This is something I struggle with. Follow through with your commitments to not only be physically present where you are, but be there mentally as well.

Ephesians 5:15-16
15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.

I consistently find myself in another world in my own head thinking about the things that need to be done. My wife and son deserve my mental presence. Consciously make an effort to be there with them, listening to what your loved ones have to say. Set aside the burdens of work, the task list for church and F3, to be present with them. Make the headspace to be the man you have been called to be. Be a HIM!

MARY:
We call this the Gloom.
Psalm 88 may be the gloomiest of the Psalms. Most end on hope. Not this one. But it’s so good to know God knows that we have days that feel like this and doesn’t turn us away. He calls us to cry out to Him.

Read PS 88 (NLT).

So just like in our workout: when things are gloomy, watch, wait, and pray. Check your form. Slow down. Wait on another guy. Know that God hears you even in the gloom.

Before you know it the gloom will be over. At least till next time.
