CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
There is one message that I’ve heard from this guy named Eric Thomas aka the hip hop preacher that I’ve carried with me since I heard it back in college.

I try to apply this to all aspects of my life and hope you all can too. Whether it’s wanting to be successful in you faith, whether its wanting to be successful in your relationships, or be successful in your careers, you are going to have to want it as bad as you want to breathe. You can’t just kind of want it, you have to want it bad, and I think what you are doing our here with F3 is a great representation of wanting to be successful in your faith and fitness

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Gentle and lowly by dane ortland, I would recommend this book! It’s been a balm to my soul. here is a quote I wanted to read today but didn’t have time.

“We cannot present a reason for Christ to finally close off his heart to his own sheep. No such reason exists. Every human friend has a limit. If we offend enough, if a relationship gets damaged enough, if we betray enough times, we are cast out. The walls go up. With Christ, our sins and weaknesses are the very resumé items that qualify us to approach him.”

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Today I wanted to get everyone doing something different than what we normally do. One of the key points of F3 is to grow ourselves and help others grow.

We focused on that ‘Next Step’ today, being better than we were yesterday. I bet if I asked you yesterday if you could do the workout you just did that you would say that you couldn’t do it. This was meant to be the “progress, not perfection mentality”.

To often do we find ourselves becoming comfortable with where we are and not taking that next step. Just because we feel like we aren’t getting closer to that next plateau. We are farther than we were.

So an example I saw that really had a profound effect is the distance we have to get to God. So every time we take that step toward God, so does God. So even though we are still some distance away from God, we are much farther away from Sin than we were. And every day we can take this next step and be somewhere that we thought was impossible.
