CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
My connection to God and to my fellow man is strongest when I have the courage to lower my defenses and allow myself to be vulnerable with others.  When I risk getting hurt is when I gain the most.  Do not be afraid to show weakness.  God said to Paul “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”  (2 Cor. 12:9).  I pray that I have the courage to acknowledge my weakness to others and make myself vulnerable.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

” I see you” – Jim Branch/God
– I recently had the pleasure of hearing Jim Branch speak and he talked about how God sees us.
– He volunteers as a chaplain for one of the high school football teams in Knoxville and he would see that during practice, one of the seniors who was on the sidelines would call out to the players on the field when they did something good that went un-noticed.
– And he would yell – “I see you – okay, I see you” – letting them know that the efforts they were making were not unseen or un-noticed.
– He went on to talk about his son running track in high school and seeing the other kids run around the track and feeling the excitement for them but when HIS son came around, he saw him from a distance and kinda stood up on his feet because he saw him. He saw his son coming around the track and was filled with so much joy!
– That’s how God sees us. He sees you and is so delighted and overjoyed because you are His son. I love that we have a heavenly father that sees us like that
– This week I want to challenge all of us to see each other. I challenge you to see someone this week. Be that voice of affirmation – “I see you” And also understand how our heavenly father sees us.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
When Martin Luther was asked what he would do if he knew tomorrow was the end. He responded that he would plant an apple tree.  How would I respond?  If I trust in God each day, I will have no reason to worry about what is in store for tomorrow. I pray I can trust God to provide that which I need.
