CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A friend of mine passed away last week.  He had struggled with MS for about 20 years.  But he never complained.  He worked really hard just to be able to live independently, but he experienced joy in spending time with friends, going to church and he appreciated being able to live the life he had.  I need to think of him more when I struggle to get up for F3, when I feel burned out with work, or I feel worn out with family.  I need to embrace the blessings I’ve been given if I am to be the man God wants me to be.  In other words, quit belly aching and love more.
MOLESKIN:
Prayers sent out to QVC, his son and his family for comfort and healing.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Proverbs 24
1 Judge impartially
To show partiality in judging is not good’ (v.23b). For those who judge justly, ‘rich blessing will come upon them’ (v.25).
2 Speak honestly
An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips’ (v.26). Sometimes it is hard to speak the truth in love, but we need to be honest with one another. The best answer you can give to any question asked is an honest one!
3 Stay loyal
Don’t talk about your neighbours behind their backs – no slander or gossip, please’ (v.28, MSG). Anyone can stay true to your face but it is the people who stay true behind your back that really count.
4 Show restraint
The temptation to pay back those who have done us harm is very great. However, the writer of Proverbs warns against taking revenge: ‘Do not say, “I’ll do to them as they have done to me; I’ll pay them back for what they did”’ (v.29).
5 Work hard
The book of Proverbs often warns against laziness. ‘A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest – and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man’ (vv.33–34).

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Talking about the “Sin of Passivity” and taking initiative.  Being a leader.  That often times we know how to lead at work or lead a home improvement project, but we don’t take initiative to lead at home.  Initiate in conversations, in our finances, initiate with our children and wives, and most importantly initiate a conversation with our Creator.

Challenge to think of 4 ways to Initiate This week…
