COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Take an “inside look” at your heart on a regular basis.  Ask your self deep and challenging questions.  Examine yourself before the Lord.  Don’t walk away with guilt and shame, but instead respond with Godly repentance which will lead you closer to the Lord, with a better understanding of your desperate need for HIM in every area at all times.   Read 1 Timothy 5.  We have 2 choices:  1) Run after the Lord day and night or 2) Run after our own pleasures and desires and if we do this we will be dead even though we are alive.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Nothing extremely profound today. It was my final Q… for the month of January. February is a new month with a bunch of opportunities to step up and lead!
Over January I snagged a Q at each of the 7 Knoxville AOs. Getting out and working with men from all the areas of town was a real joy and privilege. If your AO’s slots get filled up, grab a Q or two at another AO. You’ll be glad you did!
MOLESKIN:
Apparently box jumps on the big rocks by the hill are deemed a bit risky by most of the PAX. Something about not wanting to fall down a cliff or something? I dunno. Some of them managed to not jump all the way over their rocks…

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Pushing myself physically is often easier than pushing myself spiritually.  I know I can do 1 more Burpee or 1 more merkin even when I’m exhausted.  But when I’m drained spiritually it is hard to find that inner strength.  Fortunately we have a God who intercedes for us and carries our burdens.  We need to look no further than him and cast our burdens on him.

“Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”   Isaiah 40:28-31
