9 PAX, 1 guest Q (Spook – Travis Elkins), 1 FNG (Doghouse – Kevin Stephens)

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
1 Timothy 4:7-8 – Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths.  Rather train yourself for godliness, for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.

It is biblical that we should take care of our physical bodies and well being.  A strong body helps us to develop a strong mind.  F3 supports that aspect in the first F.  In the passage, the Apostle Paul, challenges that training in godliness of far greater value because it prepares us for the life to come, the everlasting life.  We should exercise the third F as it is of value in every way.  Holding ourselves accountable through the second F helps us progress in our third F.

MOLESKIN:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Read from Jeremiah 29:11-13 “I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. The you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”
God’s promise is clear – He’ll lead us to a place of prosperity and hope.  This promise does not include a blueprint or an answer to every question. It does not include a specific date to expect restoration. He just said “I promise.”

When your future is flooded with uncertainty, rest in God’s promise, knowing He is directing every step you make.

“When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survies.”

Life is really rough to get through by yourself. Learn to trust in the people around you and use each other to get through hard times. Don’t shut yourself in and take on the burden of the world on your own. F3 is an extremely great group of men that you can always call on for help. Use each other to get better, that’s what we’re here for.
