CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Heard this the other day and made me think. Salvation is not earned by moral perfection, so it cannot be lost by a moral failure. What matters is believing loyalty in the one true God. Made me think of the age old conversation on the predestination/free will dynamic. From our limited perspective, the exact nuances don’t really affect our day to day. What matters is we cling to God day in and day out and give Him our loyalty. Think of the characters in the Bible. God always forgave a repentant person for a moral failure. But where people went wrong was going after other gods or elevating themselves as gods. This week, let’s throw our lot in fully with the God who covers our moral failures and desires our loyalty and relationship.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Men are known for having only 2 emotions: anger and sadness. Obviously, we are meant to have more emotional depth than that, so let’s look at the Bible for any examples. Our Lord, Jesus, is a great example of righteous anger. Anger not motivated by hate, but by justice. In America, we are known to be observers over actors. As men, we need to act when we see injustice. We need to get angry and do something about the wrongs done to others. With sadness, our Lord, Jesus, is again the perfect example. When Lazarus, His friend, died, Jesus wept. We can find solice in the fact that our King felt the same that we do over loss. We need to be able to express that and lean on one another in those times of sorrow.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We are getting ready to start VBS at my church tomorrow. I am teaching the missions class to the 1st-5th graders this week and I have had missions on my mind this week. We often think about missions as going to some far off place like China, Africa, or South America. The truth is mission start right where we are now. Our first mission field is our family. We must lead our wives and children first before we lead anywhere else.

MOLESKIN:
Praise that Drifter’s kids are feeling better, pray for Smuggler’s wife as she starts a new job on Monday, pray for Rep Sleepy’s family as his wife prepares to quit her job to be a stay at home mom in August.
