MOLESKIN:
I appreciate each and every one of my fellow PAX at the Speedway! In today’s culture it is imperative that we as men stick together, not only for encouragement but for accountability and fellowship. When we stand together, we are strong! F3 has made an impact on me physically, mentally, and spiritually. When we step up to lead, it changes us at home, at work, and in our daily lives. It is such a wonderful thing to see you encourage each other out there every time we meet.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
F3 is not a religious org. Instead we are challenged to answer 2 questions. What do you believe happens when you die? And how does your answer to the first question affect how you live today. It’s up to the guy in the center of the circle to share his thoughts and the others to listen with an open mind, but also to be prepared to share alternative vantage points when it’s their turn in the center, creating healthy and constructive dialogue.

I shared my answers to the questions,  but more want to encourage you to reflect on the questions.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage.

  • Dale Carnegie

Specializing in self-improvement and interpersonal skills, American writer and lecturer Dale Carnegie talked often about the power of action. It’s easy to let our small doubts and anxieties balloon into overwhelming fears — because we allow them too much time and space to grow rather than taking action to face them. “If you want to conquer fear,” Carnegie urged, “do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.”

The Bible also talks about fear.

“do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.”

‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Don’t let fear hinder you from being the man God has called you to be. Pray and take action.

MOLESKIN:
Pray for Pennies daughter as she will be traveling out of the country. Pray for Trousers and his family. Pray for Smuggler and Halfday as they travel this week.
