Welcome FNG Vegan
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Friends, you have some you haven’t spoken to in awhile call them and check on them.  Friends in F3 hold each other accountable to workout, but we should also hold friends accountable to read the Word and spend time with our God.  Plus, we all have friends we haven’t heard from in awhile or haven’t contacted in awhile and we need to reach out and check on them.  We never know what trials and tribulations other brothers are facing and the simplest text of “hey checking on you” or “hey haven’t heard from you” can change a persons day.

“A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born out of diversity” – Proverbs 17:17
MOLESKIN:
I’m a friendly guy.  I have good stories and funny jokes.  I have many people I know.  I’m in a career field where I trust my life to my coworkers.  But…I have very few true friends.  However, since joining F3 I have not only made friends but meet my “brothers form other mothers”.  Lifelong friends are not something you have and make everyday, but I have made them through F3.  I’m talking about guys helping each other through the darkest of times, death, divorce, depression, etc, to give them a shoulder to lean on or a hand to help them up.  To guys celebrating life and birthdays and making time just to be together.  And I’m talking about guys that not only drive to Asheville when I’m on a road trip and my motorcycle breaks down, but who I share a Bible study with and who are more than willing to hold me accountable to spend time in God’s word.  Friends talk about that kind of stuff, but brothers do that kind of stuff.

EDIT: Afterwards I was told my Q seemed a little soft from my normal Qs.  I’ll have to work on that for next time….

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I lost my cool yesterday with my son and wife, and I had to look for this scripture to refer to.
“My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.”
‭‭James‬ ‭1:19-20‬ ‭NIV‬‬

God is very slow to anger with us. If he wasn’t, we would be gone a long time ago. How can we not do the same to our family and friends?                      MOLESKIN:
We lost a CMU today. It served us well.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A piece of advice that’s served me well for many years:   Normally you know the right thing to do, but for those times when you really don’t know the “right” thing to do, simply choose the more difficult of your options.  That will usually put you on the right path.

MOLESKIN:
Frosty we all agreed that Sadie needs a F3 nickname.

Mayberry we all admire your courage to admit to owning a smurf & unicorn trampstamp
