CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

God Initiates and so should we to get better physically, spiritually, and relationally.

It has been often said that the chief sin of Man is the sin of passivity.  We can be like Adam and standby and allow sin and separation to occur.  We busy ourselves with the material world while disengaging relationally or emotionally from what is going on in and around us.  We don’t have to be in great shape to show up to F3 and get better.  All we have to do is set the alarm, show up, and work hard.   Are there places in our lives relationally where we have avoided discussions because they are hard or uncomfortable?  We don’t have to have all the right answers we just need to initiate and step in where we know God is calling us.  Don’t be silent like Adam.  Step up an be the leader that God has called you to be.

MOLESKIN:
Prayers for the students family and friends that lost his life on campus due to alcohol poisoning.  Praying that those effected would be impacted in a positive way through the other students seeking to meet them where they are and share the Gospel.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA 
31 PAX including one FNG: Kyle Baisley email: [email protected]
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Discussed how we all face suffering in this life and that just like going up and down cardiac it can be very difficult. On cardiac we could persevere because we had brothers pushing us and encouraging us and we knew the workout was going to end. In life as Christians we endure suffering and face many trials. We are able to face these trials because we have hope in eternity with Christ and we have other Christian brothers and sisters who help encourage us and carry these burdens. Encouraged the PAX to go out and help carry burdens of those suffering and to remind those suffering of the fact that we have an eternal hope and that their suffering won’t last forever.

Discussed the need to fight for faith in God just like we fight to get better at other areas of our life, fitness, family, job, etc. Sometimes we may not feel like fighting for faith but just like we had to fight to make it up the hill in DORAS we need to fight to believe in God’s promises.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

43 strong this morning – No FNG’s

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Be content with the gifts and blessings that God grants you. We all fall into the trap of wanting more…..just a little more money, a little bigger house, a nicer vehicle, just a little more time, a little more grace from our spouses. The bottom line, though, is that no matter how much “more” we have in terms of worldly possessions, it will never provide the fulfillment and joy that we are seeking. No matter how much “better” our circumstances become, we will never be satisfied. We must avoid the temptation to keep wanting more, and instead, be content and thankful for everything that God has already given to us.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Pushing myself physically is often easier than pushing myself spiritually.  I know I can do 1 more Burpee or 1 more merkin even when I’m exhausted.  But when I’m drained spiritually it is hard to find that inner strength.  Fortunately we have a God who intercedes for us and carries our burdens.  We need to look no further than him and cast our burdens on him.

“Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”   Isaiah 40:28-31
