COT: Be present! Not only physically but mentally. This is something I struggle with. Follow through with your commitments to not only be physically present where you are, but be there mentally as well.

Ephesians 5:15-16
15 Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.

I consistently find myself in another world in my own head thinking about the things that need to be done. My wife and son deserve my mental presence. Consciously make an effort to be there with them, listening to what your loved ones have to say. Set aside the burdens of work, the task list for church and F3, to be present with them. Make the headspace to be the man you have been called to be. Be a HIM!

MARY:
We call this the Gloom.
Psalm 88 may be the gloomiest of the Psalms. Most end on hope. Not this one. But it’s so good to know God knows that we have days that feel like this and doesn’t turn us away. He calls us to cry out to Him.

Read PS 88 (NLT).

So just like in our workout: when things are gloomy, watch, wait, and pray. Check your form. Slow down. Wait on another guy. Know that God hears you even in the gloom.

Before you know it the gloom will be over. At least till next time.

COT:
Phillipians 2:5-11
5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
6 Who, being in very nature[a] God,
did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7 rather, he made himself nothing
by taking the very nature[b] of a servant,
being made in human likeness.
8 And being found in appearance as a man,
he humbled himself
by becoming obedient to death—
even death on a cross!
9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father.

Christmas is coming and as we enter the season of preparation I think it is good to bring to mind its deep significance.
Born – Died – Raised or incarnation – crucifixion – resurrection
Christmas remembers the first of these, the incarnation, and I think sometimes we don’t see its significance to salvation. God comes down to us. He made the move.
This is a deep thread, when the high comes down to the low. It resonates. When the officer eats last, when the general leads the charge. When a father breaks his back to provide or a mother starves to feed her children.
CS Lewis makes much of this in his writing. God’s descent into the human form forever transforms it.
