For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV
This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil,
Hebrews 6:19 NKJV
Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Romans 5:5 NKJV

Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart, All you who hope in the Lord.
Psalms 31:24 NKJV

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, But when the desire comes, it is a tree of life.
Proverbs 13:12

MOLESKIN:
While living on this earth we will always hope for things… sometimes those things are temporary and others eternal.

  1. Just remember that God is our living hope.. and is building a place for us to have eternal bliss..  so while we are waiting,  remember he gave us his spirit to give us some kind of comfort and keep hope burning.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“We are men of action. Lies do not become us.”

Who do we lie to?  Others? Ourselves? Our God?

One way we lie to all three is by pretending we will live forever.

Think of your legacy.  What do you picture? Money? A business? Heirlooms or possessions?

Which of these will survive 10 years? 20 years? 50? 100? Eternity?

Steve Jobs was one of the most influential people in the world while he lived and continues to be.  However, within months of his death, Apple released a product he said they’d never make: the iPad Mini.

Do not lie to yourself and pretend that your material work will leave a legacy for your family.  The only true legacy we can leave is by passing our values from the Word of God to others in our lives. The disciples we make will outlive us way longer than any work of our hands.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And He said to him, “ ‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.”

Matthew 22:36‭-‬40 NASB1995

Imagine what your life could be like if you just kept things as simple as those commands. No complicated relationships. No justification for rude behavior. Simply everything that we do, if we act out of love and kindness for others, we could make the world a different place.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

YHC has a medical condition that require a strict diet. Generally, one does not notice how sick they are until they get healthy get healthy. Tons of very small day-to-day choices add up to gradually feeling worse and worse.

Which leads YHC to the following question:

What if Lex Luthor didn’t try to kill Superman with a large load of kryptonite? What if he just sprinkled a little bit in his cereal every morning? That hat would make Superman feel just a little bit off all the time. He’d eventually get used to that feeling after a while and accept it as a new normal. Without killing Superman, Lex Luthor could gradually and subtly reduce him to a mere man.

Where in your life are you compromising? Where in your life do you need more discipline? Where are you sprinkling just enough kryptonite in your life to keep you from being the man you’re meant to be?

Energy kryptonite – What zaps your energy during the day little by little?

Work/productivity kryptonite – What you wrote you for being a productive contributor?

Moral kryptonite – What are the erodes your moral principles?

Faith kryptonite – What erodes your connection with God?

Love kryptonite – What the roads your connections with other people?

We know the power of tiny habits in the positive sense. What are the tiny habits in your life that are slowly reducing you to less than you should be that need to go?

1 Peter 5:8-9
8 Discipline yourselves; keep alert. Like a roaring lion your adversary the devil prowls around, looking for someone to devour. 9 Resist him, steadfast in your faith, for you know that your brothers and sisters in all the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.

MOLESKIN:
For those counting, if you finished the 11s at K25, you have completed 55 burpees.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Short weights and half measures were used to cheat people in commercial transactions.  In today’s metric workout, the only person to cheat is you.  Don’t take a half measure today to make it easier to show improvement in 6 months.  Take a real measurement and push yourself to get better.
