CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Since becoming a father 6+ years ago, I have developed a very serious devotion to St. Joseph, Jesus’ earthly father. St. Joseph is the patron saint of fathers. My favorite quote of St. Joseph’s from Scripture is, “…” That’s right, St. Joseph never speaks in Scripture. He was a man without words but not without a witness. His silent witness makes us even more aware of his actions which occurred during one crisis or another. Like St. Joseph, we don’t need words when actions will suffice. How can you develop your attentiveness to God’s will to be a man of action in the mold of St. Joseph?

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“You’ve got to ask for faith every day. You have to read about those people who exercised faith. You have to read the Scriptures.” –Mother Mary Angelica. Mother Angelica was a Roman Catholic nun of the poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration. She founded the Eternal Word Television Network (EWTN) in Birmingham, Alabama in 1981. This quote from Mother Angelica hit me hard yesterday because I have to remember to choose faith daily. In F3, the Fitness is the easiest part for me in that I can get up and meet my brothers in the Gloom. Fellowship is the next easiest, but still difficult. I love the Fellowship that pre-rucks and beatdowns give, and most of you know that I love the fact that Slack offers continual communication with the PAX of F3Knoxville outside of the Gloom, but the 2nd F can still be difficult for me in that I sometimes forget to be that friend that many men need me to be. Not only to be present and reachable but also to be there to listen when needed. 

The 3rd F, Faith is the most difficult for me. I can’t meaningfully go on “auto-pilot” with my faith. I have to actively choose my faith. I have to actively read my devotions, say my prayers, and be present for God.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises. Are any of you sick? You should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you, anointing you with oil in the name of the Lord. Such a prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make you well. And if you have committed any sins, you will be forgiven. Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.”

‭‭James‬ ‭5:13-16‬
