COT
“It is dangerous to live without your heart being captured by awe of God, because awe of God is quickly replaced by awe of you. “”

It is a daily battle,
one that is free of
physical weapons,
political parties,
and national boundaries.
It is a battle that has ben raging
since the garden
and will not stop until the war
is finally won.
This battle is not fought
between people,
it is fought
within people.
It is a much greater danger
to each of us
than war between nations
will ever be.
It is a battle of awe.
We were created to live in
a real,
heart-gripping,
agenda-setting,
behavior-forming
awe of God.
But other awes kidnap our hearts.
Awe of creation,
awe of other people,
and awe of ourselves
shove the awe of God
out of our hearts.
So we need grace to see again,
to tremble again,
and to bow down again
at the feet of the One who deserves
our awe.”-Paul David Tripp (New Morning Mercies)

COT:
hard skills

Not merely a difficult task. Rather, things that should be running at full speed at all times without thinking. Things that are hard-wired into our routine, into our lives. Hard skills are repped and repeated so many times that they should run in the background flawlessly. These skills are what we must find to be top performers in our lives. A few hard skills that we can focus on are:
– good attitude at all times
– being a good family leader
– pursuit of faith

Pretty simple: we walked about 3.5 miles and took a great pic along the way on a wagon decorated for pictures. The COT was a snippet from my Virtuous Leadership Q earlier in the week. The personal growth happening as I sharpen Iron with other men as it pertains to leadership is more than I can put into words in this space.
