CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.”  (Matthew 6:13, NIV)

 Temptation: Question: What’s the best way to handle temptation?  Answer:  Don’t try to handle the temptation!  Turn away from it!  “A wise man is cautious and turns away from evil, but a fool is arrogant and careless.” (Proverbs 14:16, NASB) It’s common sense that if you don’t want to get stung, stay away from the bees!  If you don’t want to get burned, don’t get close to the fire!  If you don’t want to fall off the cliff, don’t hang off the ledge! The goal is not to see how close you can get to temptation but rather how far away from it you can stay! Only a fool thinks they can handle temptation.  Analyze when and where you are most tempted and vulnerable, and then stay away from those situations as much as you can.

MOLESKIN:
Talked about the importance of the love ingredient in the marriage and that love is a verb not a noun, so it needs to be practiced. Plants need water to grow, same way love needs to be executed to flourish in our marriage…let’s practice simple things that we used to do when they were our girlfriends and focus on little details that will change our lives…let’s plan for a romantic diner…why not :)!!!

Bible Verse:

“You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God you will receive what he has promised.” (Hebrews 10:36, NIV)

Keep Doing the Right Thing.  In Genesis, Joseph was betrayed by his brothers, sold into slavery, falsely accused of a crime, and put in prison.  It was thirteen years of injustice and disappointments.  But he kept doing the right thing until one day he was suddenly called out of the prison to interpret Pharaoh’s dream and subsequently made the prime minister of Egypt.

God wasn’t asking Joseph to defeat his brothers, to escape his captors, to prove his innocence, or to break out of prison.  God was simply asking him to outlast the opposition.  God may not be asking you to overcome some of the challenges you face that are unfair and situations that feel like they are lasting forever.  He may just be asking you to keep doing the right thing in bad situations, and to outlast them.  He is asking you to be faithful.  Then you will be able to say along with the Apostle Paul, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.  Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day…” (2 Timothy 4:7-8).
