Forgive others
“Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you.”
‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3:13‬

Think of a book full of everything you have done in your life. The good pages, the bad pages and the ugly pages. Now think of what Jesus does for us as believers. He tears each one of those bad and ugly pages and burns them up never to be seen again. He forgets our sin, our shortcomings our selfishness.

How can we receive this gift and not do the same for others?

If someone has done something to you that you are still mad about, forgive them and move forward.

BOM: Matthew 6: 27-30. Read out of Oswald Chambers book. “Consider the lilies of the field they grow where they are put. Many of us refuse to grow where we are put, consequently we take root nowhere. Jesus says that if we obey the life God has given us, He will look after all the other things.” Where are you taking root? What are you worrying about that you shouldn’t?

Character vs. Reputation

“Character is the distinctive qualities that make a man who he truly is deep down inside. Your character is made up of all the qualities that have been deeply ingrained in your mind and spirit. It is your character that determines how you respond to life’s challenges and irritations, to both your victories and defeats. Your reputation is what others think of you; your character is what you truly are. Reputations can be manipulated; character can only be developed. While you have some control over how others see you, you have total control over your true character. The specific character traits that you develop, and live by, determine what kind of man you are.”
– Bohdi Sanders, Men of the Code: Living as a Superior Man

Wearing the F3 means something.  It means you are CHOOSING to be a man who pursues more than the status quo.  That you ACCEPT responsibility to REJECT passivity and LEAD.  You live by a code, I am Third…God, Others, Me.  Character is built through adversity.  Each morning we get out and work hard pushing ourselves and each other to get better physically, mentally and spiritually.  With each workout our character is shaped a little more.

“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 8:3-5

MOLESKIN
It was chilly, breezy morning, but we kept moving.  We carried rocks, ran hills, bear crawled, did burpees…all giving 100% with a smile.  It was an honor and blessing to lead this morning.  And just think…we get to do it all again next week!

Procrastination 

Procrastination is an easy trap to fall into, especially for me in my spiritual life.  Tomorrow is not promised, so replace “I put off today what can be tomorrow” with Proverbs 6:4 “Don’t put it off; do it now! Don’t rest until you do.”

Try to do something this weekend you have been putting off that you know you need to do.

Proverbs 6:4 

“Don’t put it off; do it now! Don’t rest until you do.”

Luke 12:40 

“You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”
