BOM: Living out of a condition of Fear.

Life comes at us fast. We may not even realize we are constantly living out of a condition of fear.  Fear of failing.  Fear of being hurt.  Fear of missing out on something.  Another way to explain this condition is “anxiety”.   We’ve all experienced anxiety in different areas of our lives. Financial anxiety; will we have enough money to pay the bills, to go on a vacation, to pay for kid’s braces? Emotional (relationships) anxiety; Will I ever be happy? Are my kids happy?  My wife? Will I end up being alone? Work and Career anxiety: Am I on track? Am I stuck in a dead-end?  Do I have security?  Does my boss even know I’m here?  House, Cars, Kids, Church, Family, School, Work, etc. OVERWHELMED!

What’s the answer??   It’s right there staring us in the face – FAITH.  The Third F!  Let your Faith be bigger than your Fear.  Go read Hebrews chapter 11.  Amen, Brothers.

Party Time!

BOM
Today is my 33rd Birthday and I’m honored to share it with you men. When I turned 30 I was determined to make the next 10 years the best years of my life. I refused to believe that my best years were behind me. I was so mad that I was 30 I had planned on beginning an F30 campaign. I would gather my friends who were all about the same age, we would get “F30” T-Shirts made with nicknames and would sign up for all kinds of Mud Runs and make sure our best years were to come. God has a funny way about things… Instead of F30, he gave me F3 with a circle around it and instead of a cool name nickname like Maverick, I was dubbed La-Z-Boy. I’m thankful to be a part of this PAX and humbled by you all every time I come out!

MOLESKIN:
Mumblechatter ended quickly with our Warm-O-Rama Burpees this morning. But picked back up when I mentioned how distraught I was at 30, some snickers and comments like “Wait til you turn 40 or 50!”. It’s great to be out with HIMs who can offer such great perspective on life.
