CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Peer Pressure vs. Accountability.  Apply God’s law to what you do; not what the world tells you to do.  Example: watch The Push on Netflix, a reality show about peer pressure and where it can lead.  Example: Dietrich Bonhoeffer during the rise of the Nazi and persecution of the Jews, he did not succumb to peer pressure, rather stayed accountable to God’s law and ultimately died for his actions.  Read the Ten Commandment for a great example of a Law to stay accountable.

Get in the habit of taking out the Garbage.  Get into the habit of confessing sin to your brothers.  Don’t let it build up and fester in your heart.  God gives Grace the the humble.  1 John 9: If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Psalm 51:10

Create in me a clean heart, O God,
and renew a rightb spirit within me.
11Cast me not away from your presence,
and take not your Holy Spirit from me.
12Restore to me the joy of your salvation,
and uphold me with a willing spirit.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Control – There is very little in life that we truly have control of. You and I don’t know what’s going to happen next. We don’t have a clue what will be on our plates next week. Honestly facing your lack of control over your own life produces either anxiety or relief. Anxiety is God-forgetting. It is the result of thinking that life is on your shoulders, that it is your job to figure it all out and keep things in order. If you fall into this way of thinking, your life will be burdened with worry and your heart will be filled with dread. But there is a much better way. It is God-remembering. It rests in the relief that although it may not look like it, your life is under the careful control of One who defines wisdom, power, and love.

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.

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.
