CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

2 Thessalonians 3:13-15

13 As for you, brothers, do not grow weary in doing good. 14 If anyone does not obey what we say in this letter, take note of that person, and have nothing to do with him, that he may be ashamed. 15 Do not regard him as an enemy, but warn him as a brother.

These three verses offer a lot of great advice for us to take to heart. Read them, apply them, and get better. Let’s look to our brothers and strive to bring them up, even if that requires causing shame. For through that shame, they will either decide to make themselves right or will continue in their lost state.

Proud of the JUCO crew that made the hard choice this morning.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

As those that have been around and heard me share over the past year there is normally a common theme where I share where God has used many people in my life to share the same message over and over again until my stubbornness is overcome and I am willingness to stop and listen.   Felt like that happened again this week.   Through the JUCO-Challenge where each day several brothers have been sharing scripture or inspirational messages Kick-Flip the other day shared this quote from Charles Dickens “Reflect upon your present blessings—of which every man has many—not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.”

Probably less than 24 hours later, I watched my wife struggle in pain after having surgery and hear her whisper more or less the same thing.   She said it’s days like these that I realize how much I take for granted just a normal day.   We remember the blessings on the special days, but what about the normal days.    Do we still see the abundance of blessings in the normal days.     A normal day where the sun rises and you wake up warm and dry in a cozy bed, a normal day where there is an abundance of options for what to eat or what to wear, a normal day where you have a job to do and a car to get you there.   A normal day where we are surrounded by friends and family.    I am guilty way too often of taking for granted the normal days.  All across the globe and even in our local Hardin Valley community for many of our neighbors their normal day doesn’t look any like what I described.    Judge has challenged us to step up our game in serving those around us where normal is different.    Let’s rise to the challenge men.   We are called to be different, looks different, act different, love different, serve different.   Remember what Jesus told his disciples in Mark 10:45   “For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.””

Still collecting coats – let’s finish strong – reach out to a few friends, coworkers, neighbors, etc and see what you can gather up for those in need.

Q1.1 talks about the commitment to accelerate your Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith.

Every day we face countless decisions that will either take use down the right path or lead us another way.  We are either accelerating or we are decelerating when making these decisions there is no neutral. The accelerating decisions do not get any easier to make they just become engrained within us. (i.e. getting up and out to an F3 workout)

A HIM needs to develop guardrails in his life to allow for continued acceleration. Guardrails are the routines in our life that allow us to take more action with less thought. We need to develop these positive habits in our life that eventually will automatically happen without any thought. 

The faster the HIM wants to accelerate the stronger these guardrails have to be. The stronger the guardrails are the more momentum we gain in our Fitness, Fellowship and Faith. 

What positive habits/routines do you already possess and what are 2-3 positive habits/routines you can begin to form to re-enforce your guardrails to allow you to accelerate faster as a HIM?

Proverbs 25:28 “Like a city whose walls are broken through is a man who lacks self-control.”

Selfishness

It’s easy to go through your day to day activities and only think about the things you need to do or that make you happy.  When was the last time you offered to help someone or made some sort of random act that benefitted only someone else?

One of the foundational aspects of being a man is demonstrating unselfish activities for others or within your family to your wife and kids.

We’ve all probably heard the verses (Luke chapter 10 for example) about loving your neighbor as yourself, but do you ever act on that?

Don’t forget to help others or do something that may seem small that might specifically set someone’s day off on a positive trajectory

Not only are you helping others by the actions that you’ll take, but as an example…you may change the way they start the day by having a simple cup of coffee ready for them when they wake up…but you’re also setting an example for you kids or someone else that may watch you go about of other way to be unselfish.

I challenge everyone to think of something…maybe we should start small and say pick out one thing that is selfish that you do and work on that. Focus on changing that in the next….week,month,year depending on how big of an aspect you decide on

 

Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves.
