COT:
Rest!
God did it after he created everything.
Jesus did it regularly during his ministry.
It’s important and necessary for us as men.
We’re pulled in so many different directions, which does make it hard.
Sleep and rest should also be part of our fitness.
It helps us be more fit physically, mentally, and spiritually.
Be intentional and set a weekly goal for God inspired rest!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:Hardship Hill coming up on Monday

COT: 1 Timothy 4:8
For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come.
Paul compares physical training for an athlete with spiritual training for godliness. He states that physical conditioning is of some importance, but is less important than a godly life. The reason godliness is more important than physical fitness is due to its eternal value.
We spend 45 minutes on physical training and only a couple minutes on the COT. We should be working on our spiritual training harder than or physical training.

COT:

Ask
Commit
Talk

I recently heard a story of a man who overcame addition to alcohol. He said that at a recovery group meeting he had this interaction:
Man #1 : Do you want to stop drinking?
Man #2 : (sarcastically) Why do you think that I am here?
Man #1 : OK, then commit to being sober for 24 hours.
Man #2 : I need decades of help, not just one day.
Man #1 : Ask God for help, commit for 24 hours, and then let’s talk about that one day.
Man #2 : Fine.

So he did it, and he’s been taking it one day at a time for 15 years. He shared the model of ACT.

Ask – Humbly Ask God to help you in this struggle.
Commit – Dedicate yourself to do this for 24 hours
Talk – Speak to a friend

Repeat

He further shared how he uses this approach on other parts of his life (anger, for instance). I decided to start this today in my own life, fighting against my selfish attitude toward my family.
