CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The standard answer when you get asked “how are you?” is easily “Busy” it feels like busy sometimes equals success and sometimes it does but be aware of staying busy to avoid the bigger issue at heart.

“We want to complexify our lives. We don’t have to, we want to. We want to be harried and hassled and busy. Unconsciously, we want the very things we complain about. For if we had leisure, we would look at ourselves and listen to our hearts and see the great gaping hole in our hearts and be terrified, because that hole is so big that nothing but God can fill it.” — Kreeft.

The lesson here is to acknowledge that great gaping hole and the only one that can fill it. Spend time in the WORD and with people that point out that hole, be there to point it out for others. Stop being busy every once in a while, slow down and realize you are a well loved son of an amazing God.

MOLESKIN:
Great to see a new face and some old friends!

Galatians 6:2

Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ

Whether your rich, poor, healthy, unhealthy… all of us face difficulties in life that we cannot handle alone. God calls upon us to help each other carry our burdens. Life would be almost impossible without each other. Look for ways you can help your friends, families, or even strangers.  You may never know what burdens they are carrying.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I wasn’t very prepared for my Q today. I fell short with everything from drinking enough water so I could operate at my best to having enough planned to fill the whole hour. Lately I have either not shown up for a Q or I have been late. Luckily, F3 gives us something more than great workouts. We also get an amazing group of guys to keep us accountable and bring us back in when life starts pulling us away. By leaning on our brothers we can make it back in the gloom and be better men for it.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
My goal as a man and as a Pastor is to always usher people into an encounter with God.  An encounter with God will NEVER leave one the same.  Look at the disciples, the people who came in contact with Jesus, King Nebuchadnezzar in the Old Testament, and Paul (writer of most of the New Testament).  They simply encountered the very real God of the universe and they were changed.  I want the church to be full of good preaching, good music, and good people, but most importantly, I want the church and my life to be a place where people can encounter God.
