CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“Patience is a virtue” but not a strong virtue of mine.

Impatience can be defined as a strong serge of animosity toward the weaknesses, faults and failures of others…a bad driver, a long line, a coworker, a spouse or child taking a while to get ready.

Stephen Covey – told a story about a man and his wild kids getting on a subway one Sunday morning; the kids were throwing people’s newspapers, yelling, etc. while the man just just sat there ignoring them. Covey asked the man if we man was going to discipline his kids; the man said his wife, their mother, just died and he guesses the kids aren’t sure how to process her death nor did he. Covey went from irritated to compassionate towards the man.

In situations…Be Patient. Show Empathy.

Remember, we sin every day so God has tremendous patience for us.  We should strive to be patient like him.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Lately, I have felt a little lost with my faith and what God wants for my life.  I’ve been in a funk and trying to get out of it.  I’ve started to ask God if He can guide me.  I’ve been searching for scripture that will help with focus.

Isaiah 43:2 “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you.”

Psalm 37:5 “Commit your way to the Lord.  Trust in Him, and He will act.”

Isaiah 41:10 ” Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.  Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you.”

Philippians 4:13 “I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength.”

MOLESKIN:

Prayers for several F3 brothers recovering from injuries..

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

This coming Sunday, February 4, F3 members will be leading a special workout with kids from the Mechanicsville and Broadway areas. In addition to the workout, we will also be delivering some much needed sports equipment.

All you have to do is show up. Come out, have fun and interact with the kids and let them see and experience positive, male role models. The workout will take place at The Wesley House (1719 Reynolds St. Knoxville, TN 37921) from 2:00pm – 3:00pm.  We will do a 45 min workout with the kids where we will partner up for team building exercises and gather for a BOM at the end.

8 PAX, including FNG: Jammies (Paul Hester Jr). Progeny of Peach Fuzz!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Colossians 3:23: Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.

This was spoken by Paul specifically toward slaves and their relationship to their masters, but of course it applies to us as well. I’m often guilty (this past week in particular) do doing things grudgingly rather than heartily. Whether it’s for your master, your employer, your spouse, your in-laws… do it heartily. Your mind has a lot of control over your emotions. If you make that choice, not only will you be honoring to God, you’ll do a better job and be happier for it.

MOLESKIN:
Props to Jammies for finally posting after a bunch of EHing from all sides! Heads up, Big Ballers… I think the balance may be headed your way on Thursday. I’ll start the handful a bit smaller so we can get more in!
