CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
It’s pretty easy to come up with a Q. I jacked this one from the #backblast channel. It came from @Rooney at the Asylum. It’s great to come up with new workouts as well. I typically will take pieces from different workouts and make them my own.

What do you see when you look in the mirror?
How do you talk to yourself?
Do you say things like, “I’ll never be able to do that…” or is it more like, “I can do anything I put my mind to!” or “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

95% of your emotions are determined by how you talk to yourself. – Zac Stephen’s

Too many Christians are not looking for Peace in God, but pieces of God.

Choosing what’s convenient for what they have going on right now, instead of basking in the peace God offers, once surrender your heart to him.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Romans 8:37 tells us that, “You are an overcomer, and you will triumph.”

I don’t know who needed to hear that this morning, but it sure is reassuring to me. No matter what this world throws at us, we are ready and will overcome it.
Once we surrender to the shaping hands of the Spirit of God, He will not only “renew your mind” but transform you down to your very soul.
I think that’s where the magic 🪄 is!

Quote that I heard this week, “You cannot have a positive life and a negative mind.” – Joyce Meyer

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
9 HIMS

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Philippians 2 says: work out your salvation with fear and trembling.
Out here, God gives us the breath and the chance to be here.
We bring some good old fashion grit and make a trip up Jucomajaro
Or we are motivated to do more pushups than we would do on our own.
So thank you.
But The Christian walk isn’t like that. But we do bring something.

The difference is explained in the next verse:

for it is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure.

I don’t have it figured out, we work at it. He does the work.  Pray that God will empower your spiritual life to be greater than just trying hard, but that God would move through you.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
14 HIMs came out on the third anniversary of my first VQ! Love the JUCO PAX and their enthusiasm.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Don’t allow yourself to become complacent. It’s obvious that no one here is complacent with their physical self as we are all here to grow and push ourselves to the next level. It’s important that we apply that same desire to grow in all areas of our lives. Remember that the goal of F3 is not to workout, but to invigorate male leadership within the community. I hope that JUCO has done that for more men than just myself. Today marked three years to the date from my VQ. I was hesitant to step up and take the lead in a workout, but the constant encouragement (and badgering) from Judge Judy got me over the hump. Taking the lead of a group of men like those at JUCO has given me greater confidence in my ability to lead. I’ve been able to take that confidence and use it to take leadership in other areas of my life. These last three years have really pushed me to step up into more leadership positions and I’m grateful to the PAX at JUCO for that.

MOLESKIN:

Love the PAX at JUCO. These men have pushed me to hold myself to a higher standard.

The God of Second Chances
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the hopper, the destroyer, and the cutter, my great army, which I sent among you.
Joel 2:25 ESV
You may be going through your own set of “swarming locusts” (disappointments, failures, trials), but this verse shows how God, who even at times may bring these “locusts,” is faithful and true and will restore you in His perfect timing.
