CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Being uncomfortable is necessary for growth. Don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone for the sake of getting better. Practicing those things that make you uncomfortable will make you better at them…like burpees and bear crawls.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A side tangent was discussed in church last weekend. This was about how we need other people. Often we like to think we can handle everything ourselves, but in reality, we rely on others (Family, peers etc.) I have been blessed to have excellent mentors at work this year (and you all aren’t such a bad lot either) Do not be averse to trying to learn from other. Be willing to depend on other people. Chances are they know something you don’t.

There is different kinds of love but they are all important. I celebrated my wedding anniversary yesterday. Like many of you, I married WAY OVER MY HEAD! My wife is a great person with a big heart and tons of patience! I can and do learn a lot from her. There’s also brotherly love like we have for our friends. There’s God’s love for us even though we sin and fail everyday. We should strive to love others like God loves us.

Ephesians 5:25-33: “Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her, that he might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word, so that he might present the church to himself in splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing, that she might be holy and without blemish. In the same way husbands should love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as Christ does the church, …”

1 Corinthians 13:4-5: “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.”

1 Corinthians 16:14: “Do everything in love.”

Psalm 143:8: “Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.

John 15:12: “My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.”

Ephesians 4:32: “Be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.”

1 John 4:12: “No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.”

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Live in the now, think about how you’ll react in a situation prior to the situation. Later today is not guaranteed, nor is tomorrow. My whole life I can look back at moments where I thought highly of someone, example is a junior high kid my role modles were the HS Varsity Basketball Players, that day came and left, then it was college athletes, and pro athletes…and now reflecting on that, they are young kids…with hopefully a long life ahead of them…What i’m getting at is no day is guaranteed. Over the past month, we have seen 8yr old kids being murdered, Fathers and Brothers committing suicide, and several pedestrians struck by vehicles. My point here is that even at the age of 60+ when you think you have made it (or at least in my eyes) past all the “crazy days” or “tough times” your life is not guaranteed another day…Be Godly, Be active, Contemplate prior to your actions to help with the reflection of your actions….
MOLESKIN:
Love the JUCO Men…It’s an honor to be able to lead and endure with you all.  Thanks for having me!
