COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
22 crushed Iron PAX challenge week 4.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
1 Thess. 5:17 “Pray without ceasing”.  My pray life has been something of a constant struggle. I just simply haven’t made it the priority it should be.  It should be part of our everyday lives and practically a constant state of mind.  Jesus warns against “meaningless repetition” in Matthew 6:5-8.  In context, it sounds more like he is calling out people who may try to sound good before men with their prayers and don’t have their focus on the fact that they are speaking to God.  However, I think it is reasonable to apply any meaningless prayer that one may say.  For example, I tend to have a standard before-meal prayer that I always use.  There is no real meaning and no true thankfulness behind it.  He says to “pray to your Father in secret” so that you don’t focus on being seen by men.  Make sure you are keeping your focus on speaking to your Creator.  Maintaining a relationship with God requires spending time in prayer with Him just like any relationship requires a time investment.  Sometimes it may be difficult to find the words, but if we put in the time, God will hear even if we don’t know what to say.
MOLESKIN:
Nice job to all the PAX this month for completing the Iron PAX challenge!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Joshua Chapter 24; Discussed that the most notable verse (actually, just the last line of verse 15) “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord” is often taken out of context.  When seen/spoken alone without understanding the background for the verse, it can be taken as a snub/insult toward others rather than its true nature, which was a challenge by Joshua to the leaders of the Israelites (think massive crowd, not just a few people).  After serving as a proxy for God’s words, laying out all of the blessings that He had provided to Israel, he issues the challenge:  “If it is evil in your eyes to serve the Lord, choose this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your fathers served in the region beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you dwell.  But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord!”  Emphasis on SERVE.  Issued a challenge to look deep inside and evaluate what and who we serve, and whether, if someone laid out a laundry list of our blessings, we were doing our part as individuals in our families, churches, and communities to serve them as God has served us.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Crawling on hands and knees up a steep hill in various directions is often what life feels like.  However, we climb knowing Christ is with us.  We climb knowing we are not alone.  We can climb in strength knowing we lean on God our redeemer — our true rock.

Ps 18:2 The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Ps 19:14 May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.

Ps 28:1 To you, Lord, I call; you are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit.

Ps 31:2 Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me.

Ps 62:2 Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
