CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Romans 5:1‭-‬5 ESV

MOLESKIN:
Whatever weakens your reason, impairs the tenderness of your conscience, obscures your sense of God, takes off your relish for spiritual things, whatever increases the authority of the body over the mind, that thing is sin to you, however innocent it may seem in itself.” Susanna Wesley 

Susanna told this to John her son as a reminder that we as men need to keep our guard up or enemy will attack and cause injuries.

While on this earth we need to remember that when we fully follow Christ, there will be a form of suffering. We just need to dig deep in our walk with God so we can saturate the Gospel  in our family and community

“3 Seconds of Courage”

A funny story from my honeymoon about 3 seconds of courage, and no, it’s not what you think. 

After dinner one night, my wife and I were walking around the property and there was this band playing in this outdoor amphitheater area. So we sat down and got a drink and listened to them for a bit. They were playing some pretty popular music that people could dance to, and some of the staff was dancing with guests towards the stage, and then some of the guests started getting up to dance. And as Megan and I were watching this, something really strange happened – I got super nervous. I could tell my wife wanted to dance, and I did too, but for some reason I was really nervous to ask her to dance. My new wife! I kind of danced around it a little bit, asking her “Hey do you want to dance?” And her replying “Yeah kind of but I’m nervous!” And guys it was the funniest thing looking back. I’m sitting there with my wife, and she wants to be asked to dance and I want to ask her to dance and whisk her away with boldness to do so, and I’m sitting there thinking “What the hell man, just ask her to dance, she’s your wife and she wants to dance with you, what are you doing!?” 

And I almost missed out on an opportunity to dance with my wife. Almost. I shared this with her when we were cliff jumping this summer, and she was nervous to jump off a 10 foot cliff into the lake: “All it takes is 3 seconds of courage.” And after about 10 minutes she eventually jumped and it ended up being fine. The same thing applied to me last week, when I almost missed an opportunity to ask my wife to dance, I had to take my own advice – 3 seconds of courage is all it takes. Looking back tt really was kind of funny, both of us sitting there, just having been married, and nervous to get up and dance together. 

So sometimes a deep breath and 3 seconds of courage is all it takes: 

  • To be intentional 
  • To be bold 
  • To be thoughtful 
  • To make an impact

And the scariest part of that is not the end goal, but the initial workup mentally. And so I want to pose this to us as we head into the weekend and a new week, where can you implement 3 seconds of courage? Someone in your life needs this from you! Maybe it is your wife or your family or your friends or your coworkers or a conversation you’ve been meaning to have for a while. All it takes is 3 seconds of courage.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Thinking about the pain and sickness in our lives should remind us that this is not our home! We will one day stand before the Lord and hear those words, “Well done good, and faithful servant.” – we must remember that the Good and Faithful is not because we did those things, in fact, most of our lives are opposites of that. But Christ is the perfect sacrifice he died once and for all! It’s his perfect righteousness that we live under and are clothed by that God see! We didn’t earn it!
