COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
8 strong today!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Perspective… Part 2.  As I mentioned to the JUCO crew, when you’re on the mosey for a lap, you don’t even notice the distance from the game board to the light pole.  While you’re bear crawling to the pole, it looks a lot further.  While you’re crawling backward, the distance looks nearly insurmountable.  We all have areas and times in our life when we’ve got those different perspectives.  When you’re in a “mosey” stage, remember that not everyone is there.  Give grace to those who are at the backward bear crawl.
MOLESKIN:
Always a pleasure to visit the Brickyardigans!  Filter joined us too so he could get his beatdown in early and get home for his 2.0’s birthday.  Kudos on not using that as an excuse to fartsack!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Psalm 1:1 Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers. 

We are not always in the position of leadership and it is easy to criticize those that are over us. We do it a lot with politicians, bosses, church leaders. Do not fall into the trap of being a scoffer. A scoffer cannot find happiness in anything. Remember who you are and that you serve the Creator of all things. Encourage those around you at work and at home.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Bear one anothers burdens.

Brethren, even if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But each one must examine his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another. For each one will bear his own load.
Galatians 6:1‭-‬5 NASB
We are called to step alongside our brothers and help them when needed, many times even when they don’t want the help because they believe they can do it themselves. We do this to not only build our brothers up, but also to remind ourselves that we are not an island unto ourselves. We need the reminder that we are not “All that” but that we need our brothers as much as they need us.

MOLESKIN:
I’m thankful for F3 and the men at the Brickyard that push me daily to get better and remind me that I am not the greatest but on the path to getting better every day.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
