CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Matthew 22:35-40  Jesus’s most important commandments.  Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.  And the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself.  All the Law and Prophets hang on these two commandments.

I shared about a struggle with a neighborhood kid who I am trying to love, but its challenging because of his behavior.  I am trying to embody the second commandment, but its a challenge I struggle with.  The challenge was issued to all men to take these commandments to heart and LOVE OTHERS.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Lots of chaos happens to us and it often puts us into situations you can’t control. You can, however, control your actions. React intentionally to this chaos and don’t let it control you. You can deal with the situation and be positive, or you can deal with it and be frustrated. The positive route is way easier.

When we first come out, it’s about survival. Then we get to the point that we can go for a whole workout. It’s important that we don’t stop there and that we continue to push ourselves to improve.

MOLESKIN:
FNG Rosetta showed up after receiving a Flying EH from “the Snowman” Frosty. Some mumble chatter about how eerily similar this was to the Killer B’s. However, if you want to be the Iron PAX, you have to train like the Iron PAX!
