COT:
Man this has been a crazy week at the Bailey household. I imagine it was a little crazy for all of us. I was originally going to talk about the Presidential election 🗳️ but decided to talk about something different. Although the two things I want to focus on could probably be tied to that as well.

My wife signed up for the Indy race back in February and we were supposed to be leaving later this morning and head to Indiana. We were going out for dinner and then taking it back to the hotel. The plan was for her to wake up and run her marathon.

Plans have changed. My daughter broke her arm Wednesday and has surgery scheduled at 11 AM this morning.

So what I would like to talk about is sacrifice and compassion.

My wife has been training her butt off for months. Waking up early on Saturdays or Sundays to get in long runs to prepare for this race. We thought we were taking my daughter to get a cast yesterday and that’s when we found out she would require surgery. I was trying to make a way for it to work so that my wife could go ahead and run her race, like staying back with Rebecca while she went to Indiana. She couldn’t bring herself to do it because she knew she wouldn’t be focused she knew she would be worried about my daughter. that’s both sacrifice and compassion.

Doc McStuffins AKA Dr Keith Gray spoke at my church a couple of weeks back and he defined compassion.

Compassion is made up of these 3 things:
Seeing others with empathy
Listening without distraction
Bold & Sacrificial action

“I love the Lord because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy.”
“Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭116‬:‭1-2

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?”
