Tour De Belmont West & Gulf Park

Q: Mermaid
PAX: Mermaid, Toretto, Dumpster Dive, Mailbox
FNGs: None
COUNT: 4
We had a nice walk through Gulf Park & Belmont West with a brief tour of the back of the Cedar Bluff Schools. We were running about two minutes behind so we began the circle of trust on the way back.

We discussed the power of your attitude as a filter for the things that happen to you. Often times (within reason) a positive outlook impacts how you grow or learn from events. How will that reaction define you?

Mental health is a big deal! We are all working on our physical bodies and need to keep the mind healthy as well. I had a good friend die by suicide last year. If you are having issues or problems get help! Grab a friend or counselor and get help! Also with new years comes resolutions don’t try to change everything keep reiterating your self a small change over. Long time will do much more than a large unsustainable change.

The Legend of the Candy Cane

A few facts about the candy cane:
-It was originally straight and white. The red stripes were added around 1900.
-Candy Canes have been around for 350 years
-Candy canes were originally invented to help keep children quite during the Christmas Eve services

The main thing I wanted to share about the Candy Cane is how you can use it to share the message of Jesus

o They look like a shepherd’s hook or the letter J for Jesus.
o The white represents the purity of Jesus and the red to symbolize the blood he shed for our sins and the 3 fine lines are for the Holy Trinity.
o The hardness of the candy cane represents the solid foundation we have in Jesus.
o The candy cane was also made to be given as a gift, representing the love of Jesus when he gave us the gift of salvation.

Every HIM received at least 2 candy canes, one for them and one to share and tell the story.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:

“When we were utterly helpless, Christ came at just the right time and died for us sinners. Now, most people would not be willing to die for an upright person, though someone might perhaps be willing to die for a person who is especially good. But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5‬:‭ 6-8‬

There is nothing that you could ever do to make God love you less, and there is nothing that you could ever do to make God love you more. Let me repeat that.
