CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Spoke about the Tennessee/Alabama game and how Tennessee and it’s team resembles our lives a lot more than Alabama.  That sometimes our hard work doesn’t turn out the way we desired.  That obstacles and hardship don’t mean we’re being punished.  God just asks us to show up and be faithful.  To trust him no matter what is going on at any given time.  That he has a plan and sometimes it doesn’t look the way we wanted or thought might be best for us, but God sees the whole picture.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A friend of mine passed away last week.  He had struggled with MS for about 20 years.  But he never complained.  He worked really hard just to be able to live independently, but he experienced joy in spending time with friends, going to church and he appreciated being able to live the life he had.  I need to think of him more when I struggle to get up for F3, when I feel burned out with work, or I feel worn out with family.  I need to embrace the blessings I’ve been given if I am to be the man God wants me to be.  In other words, quit belly aching and love more.
MOLESKIN:
Prayers sent out to QVC, his son and his family for comfort and healing.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Talking about the “Sin of Passivity” and taking initiative.  Being a leader.  That often times we know how to lead at work or lead a home improvement project, but we don’t take initiative to lead at home.  Initiate in conversations, in our finances, initiate with our children and wives, and most importantly initiate a conversation with our Creator.

Challenge to think of 4 ways to Initiate This week…

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Be patient and a good example for your kids (and any younger than you for that matter).  I know I struggle on a regular basis with keeping my cool when trying to get the kids to listen and do as they are told.  I wanted to simply remind everyone this morning how much children model our behavior.  They will very likely lash out if that is what we do every time we get a little impatient and frustrated.  Take a step back, breath, and collect your thoughts before you respond.
MOLESKIN:
I really appreciate the opportunity to lead the PAX this morning for my first F3 Knoxville Q.  Thanks for sticking with me through the workout.  I look forward to my next Q.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Prayers requested for Dogbite.
