Junk delivered this:

Don’t be religious
When people in our society use the word “religious“ they think it means for someone to have faith in something or to be involved in one religion or another. That’s not what it means.
Humans by their very nature are constantly measuring themselves, most frequently against other humans. We can’t help it. It’s built into how we see the world and it’s part of why we have such a hard time relating to God, because we can never measure ourselves against him.
Instead we constantly measure ourselves against each other, choosing to see the things that make us look the best and ignore the things that make us look the worst. We make excuses for our shortcomings and pat ourselves on the back for our perceived areas of success or excellence.
This is religion. Religion requires rules and a constant measuring of oneself against a standard. The biggest challenge with that is that very quickly we begin measuring other people against the standard of us.
This happens in every religion. They’re not in an offer in escape from this, save one.
Jesus came to abolish religiosity in favor of rebirth, transformation of how we think. God doesn’t want more religious people, he wants converts. People who’s understanding and outlook on the world is fundamentally changed to one that seeks to glorify God instead of oneself. Men and women who recognize we can never earn salvation and therefore he’s not breeding us based on how many rules we have followed and how well we “toe the line.” Jesus said this clear as day. Man looks on the outward appearance (the rules, the way we look, posturing, judging)… but God looks on the heart. He cares about who you are not what you look like or the facade you put out there. He wants your heart, a renewing of your mind and a filling with His spirit – the behaviors follow naturally.

MOLESKIN:

Lots of talk about getting Woke this morning. Felt the most woke about Junk’s word on acting religiously.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Sacrifice. I-beam spoke about our friend WaxJob’s relentless service and sacrifices that he makes for others by putting himself behind everyone else. A true HIM that we should look at for inspiration. Prayed for his mother-in-law and family. Prayers for Biscuits dad and the tragedy that happed on the lake with the teenager and older man.
MOLESKIN:
So the Q was very much winded during the work out. I haven’t been out too much lately and the humidity was quite a shock to my system. I was encouraged to keep going harder by several of the PAX, specifically the freak of nature Tweet-e! One of the things that F3 is so attractive to others is the fact that we push each other to do better. Working out or trying to get fit on our own is very difficult. If I was by myself today I definitely would have stopped and probably not have finished the full workout. Probably would’ve gone and got a biscuit too! So for this PAX member, I’m truly grateful for the rest of the PAX pushing me to keep going.

We can learn a lot from a Dog.

When your loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
• Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
• Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure Ecstasy.
• Take naps.
• Stretch before rising.
• Run, romp, and play daily.
• Thrive on attention and let people touch you.
• Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
• On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
• On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
• When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
• Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
• Be faithful.
• Never pretend to be something you’re not.
• If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.
• When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close by, and nuzzle them gently.

MOLESKIN:

Snitches dog died this week and the BOM was about a dog dying and how we can learn from them. Crazy how God works.
