COT:
NMTA Not Meant To Arrive
There are 4 Pillars of arrival:
Can’t arrive. This is a negative mindset. You don’t believe in yourself and we need to fix that immediately.

Has arrived. You’ve made it, now what?
You’re not trying anymore. Afraid to take chances, because you might lose the title. Do not stop. Continue to set goals!

Will arrive. Once XYZ happens, then I’ll be happy. There are people sitting in nursing homes right now, still waiting on XYZ.

Not meant to arrive. This is where we should all strive to be! Become the next best version of yourself. Enjoy the journey just as much if not more than destination.
My development has no end. There is always more to learn, always more to do, and you can learn from every situation and everyone.

Be “Blissfully Unsatisfied!” Brothers!

”Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.“
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37‬:‭4‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Screenshot of “For directions, set current location as the starting point.”

Beware of the traps that sound like this:
– When I get “there” I’ll__________.”
– After I clean up my act then I’ll____________.”
– Next week/month/year I’m really going to focus on_________.”

When this screen popped up in my car and made me think – this is exactly right. For the directions that you are seeking to advance into the next season of life, your current location (physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, relationally, etc.) is the perfect (and only) start point.

Challenge someone in your sphere of influence this week by intentionally asking them what God asks Adam in Genesis: “Where are you?”

COT: Last week Lil’ Spice mentioned a Christian artist named Andrew Peterson. I recognized the name, not by music but by his writing. He wrote a 4 book miniseries entitled The Wingfeather Saga that tells the tale of a family of kids who must learn about life in the midst of strife.
In one chapter an idea struck as very poignant. The idea is to be the Moon in the darkness. To be a light for those who are struggling. I talked about how the moon has many phases that shows different brightness. We also reflect that same brightness, sometimes Full, sometimes waxing or waning and sometimes new and just showing a sliver. Sometimes it’s obvious that we are good men, husbands, fathers, leaders and other times when we struggle to see a way for ourselves. So when you’re bright, shine for those who struggle and when you struggle find that bright light and ask for help.
Guardrail also mentioned that the moon doesn’t provide light but gives off the reflection of the sun, so, in this metaphor, be a reflection of the Son.

Prayers for those struggling through what life has going on including cancer, health, storm recovery and so much more
