Gratitude. Seek out the little things daily that we can express gratitude for, your daughter/son taking out the trash without asking, your co-worker cleaning up the kitchen even when they didn’t make the mess. When you start looking for the things in life to be thankful for, it is harder to be negative and your spirit of gratefulness will spread to those around you.

BOM

BOM

  • Plan your workout – Actually write it down and get someone who has Q’d before to review it.
  • Better to have too much than not enough
  • Have an alternative Plan! for rain, weather size of PAX etc.
  • Welcome everyone
  • Use good form
  • Cadence- Inflection and recover and practice out loud!

BOM

“Today you will spend solitary moments of conversation with yourself, either listing your complaints or counting your blessings.”

“Think with me for a moment. Do you live a life of blessing or complaint?

  • easy to find fault, discontent.
  • easy to be irritated and impatient.
  • easy to groan and moan about the difficulties of life
  • easy to be dissatisfied.

Why are these things so easy? Well, they’re easy because sin still causes us to make it all about us. ”

“Our readiness to complain is another argument for the forgiving and rescuing grace that Jesus, without complaint, willingly died to give us.”

Saint Francis Prayer

Lord make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred let me sow love
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is doubt, faith
Where there is despair, hope
Where there is darkness, light
And where there is sadness, joy

O divine master grant that I may
not so much seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love
For it is in giving that we receive
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it’s in dying that we are born to eternal life
Amen

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Jesus’ message is antithetical to the old youth rock montra of “All we are is just another brick in the wall”.  Jesus says you are important, you matter, you are loved, He is very intentional about the value of everyone’s life and everyones every-moment!
