CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Reflecting on the battle of Thermopylae and brave Spartans that stood in the gap to fend off the fierce Persian army.  Encouraged the PAX to consider their battles and importance of being prepared for the spiritual warfare going on around them.  Whether it is the battle for integrity when alone in front of a computer or the need for battle on our knees for our families and community, God’s Word and Prayer are our best weapons.  The battle is coming, so we must be ready to fight.

Proverbs 27:17 “Iron sharpens iron”… F3 is a great training ground to prepare for the frontline battles we will definitely face.

F3 5 Qualities of a Virtuous Leader (https://f3nation.com/lead-right-q3/)   

Candor– Graciously telling the truth and demanding to hear it from others

Commitment-Unwavering loyalty to a group and unflinching determination to accomplish its Mission (This breeds long term sustainable results)

Consistent-possess an unchanging nature, If you cannot be relied upon results will be inconsistent. 

Contentment-Stable emotions that pursue joy instead of happiness. A content leader can abandon personal comforts for the greater goal. 

Courage-Creating the habit of setting aside fear to turn hardship into grace. Accepting fear as necessary but overcoming it by being prepared and having self-control. 

 

2 Peter 1:5-8

5 For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue,[e] and virtue with knowledge, 6 and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, 7 and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. 8 For if these qualities[f] are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

What’s your story? Actually, where do I fit into God’s story? I have been reading through the Bible with my community group and we are still in the Old Testament. I love the perspective that you get when reading through the Bible. You get to see this amazing story full of countless events that all point to God’s glory. Stories of people like David who had this incredible heart for God and for his people. He messed up big time and the Bible does not gloss over this and keeps reminding the reader that he screwed up. But God makes it clear that David was an important part of his story regardless. I read about Ruth and how she was a foreigner that was a nobody. God used her courage and faith and she became the great grandmother of King David. 

Sometimes I read amazing stories like this and wonder how my ordinary life in the suburbs of west Knoxville play into God’s story. I wonder if I am doing enough for God. The fact is, He doesn’t need me, but will use my life to glorify him in his story. So once again I am reminded that it’s not about me, but God will use me for his plan. I heard someone on the radio last night say that it can be a scary thing to say to God, but asking him to “use me” is something he wants to hear.
