16 HIMs this morning.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This politics season we have left and right duking it out as usual, which was what prompted this Left and Right Q, but as I worked on the details, God brought to mind a totally different left and right context in Matthew 6:

Beware of practicing your righteousness before other people in order to be seen by them, for then you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. Thus, when you give to the needy, sound no trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be praised by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

Two points from the above… The first is the obvious one – Don’t do good stuff for recognition from man. Second is just one word – “When”, not “If”. It should be the default that we are going to help others – Be on the lookout for opportunities to practice “When”.

MOLESKIN:
Lovely concert during the beatdown from trumpet virtuoso Sparky!

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Sticking your neck out for what’s right.

I used an example of my wife stepping up and taking on several people that were not doing what was right. She was willing to put her neck out there and take on a lot of work, lose relationships and even have people talk bad about her even though she did nothing wrong.

Its tough to stand up sometimes when you know if you do it could cause heartache. But, we need to stand up for what’s right and not let bad things happen as we turn the other way. I was very proud of my wife and I learned that she is not afraid to put herself on the line for what’s right.
MOLESKIN:
Great to see all the still sore GoRuckers out there loosening up those muscles. Awesome job fellas!
