CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We often worry about the details of our day, about possible mistakes or threats, or about getting things perfect or “right.”  Such worries can actually hurt our performance.  Try reading a chapter from a book where you must remember every word you read.  You can get so caught up in the memorization that you lose the message the author is trying to convey.  When we worry about details, about getting things right, about possible mistakes, we not only hamper our performance but we lose focus on the glory of God’s world that is right there in front of us.  Jesus told us to leave our worries to God.  Focus on God and His glory, not on worries.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A book that Cap’n Crunch has recommended is Wild at Heart by John Eldridge.  Eldridge talks about how as men, we are often taught to ignore our wounds.  Yet, our reaction to our wounds leads us to live out of a false self.  God wants us to live out of our true selves.  We must recognize and admit our wounds, come to God with them.  By admitting our wounds and approaching God with them, we can get beyond them and be the true men God wants us to be.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Periods vs. Commas”

  • The enemy tries to place periods in our life (death of a family member, a hard time, loss of job or loved one, tragedy like Vegas shooting, etc) that insinuate the game is over, that’s the end of the story. God looks at that and turns it into a comma instead, allowing whatever hard or difficult thing we’re going through or experiencing to not be the end of the story, just more of a pause as he carries us through to the “next part of the sentence” or stage of life.
  • Whatever periods you have experienced in your life and may be experiencing now –> God will turn that into a comma and carry you through.
  • Your story is not over. The is not the end. What seems like a unsurpassable period in your life is not the end of the story. Trust God to turn it into a comma and help you realize that there is more to come. You were made for more than to just be defeated by whatever period the enemy has put in your life.

In Wild at Heart, John Eldredge talks about three things in the heart of every man:
– An adventure to live
– A battle to fight
– A beauty to rescue

Being a HIM means paying attention to each of these three aspects of our heart.  Bottom line…IT’S NOT ABOUT US!  We draw breath to be life-givers to others.
