CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We need each other. Don’t let yourself be isolated by the Enemy. One of the ways the Enemy tries to destroy you is by putting bitterness in your heart towards another Brother or HIM. We have to fight that as men by pressing into the pain of a difficult conversation to reconcile, or by rubbing shoulders with other HIMs when we feel like being a Lone Ranger.
MOLESKIN:
The BOM was taken largely from Wild At Heart by John Eldridge.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Your beliefs become your thoughts,
Your thoughts become your words,
Your words become your actions,
Your actions become your habits,
Your habits become your values,
Your values become your destiny.

-Ghandi

I can sometimes lose sight of what I’m working towards. Throughout the year I have to refocus myself because I’ve strayed from the path I wanted to be on. Whether because of some new shiney thing distracting me off to the side or because I backslid on my habits. I don’t have trouble making fitness and fun thing habits. Where I struggle to find my destiny is in work. Sometimes I just feel like I’m on cruise control and not actively thinking, acting and making habits. I think the hardest place to make habits and form our destiny is in the things that we like to do the least. Take some time this week to think of some place in your life you know you need to be taking care of business but haven’t been able to shape that destiny by making good habits toward that end. Make a gameplan to get it done.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Expanding on word I had from BB a few weeks back (the same boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg).  From the book of James: “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.  Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.  If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.  But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind….Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”
MOLESKIN:
Continue to pray for Charmin’s friend John, who has been diagnosed with cancer.  Also pray for Natty’s friend who had a family member take his own life.
