CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I have a Daily Men’s Devotional on the middle console of my van. My thought of having it there was that I will see it every day and read the paragraph and prayer for each day one of the times I am getting in and out of the van. Because I am not the *best* at follow-through, I usually only actually read it once or twice a week. It’s there every day and I see it, but I have stopped seeing it. It has become like a pebble in your shoe. At first, it is annoying and you notice it constantly. However, after a while, you get used to it and stopped noticing it.

All this to say, I need to be better with my prayer life. I have gone in spurts of praying every day, but it almost never lasts. Speak it into existence, right?!

Ask everyone to forgive me for wasting their time.

Page 70 of Freed to lead reminded me that “There is no stretching in an F3 Workout….when the clock strikes go, the Q moves out, even if there are still cars coming into the lot….We do this (start on time) because we are men and leaders, and, for us, time is important.”

Let’s not waist time.
