CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Lately things have been going great for me. I got my CPA license, got a big promotion at work, got a nice raise, scheduled a couple vacations for next year already, took a couple vacations this summer. Things are going really well. When I read the Gospel yesterday, it happened to be Matthew 6:19-23. Verses 19-20 read: “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and decay destroy, and thieves break in and steal. But store up treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor decay destroys, nor thieves break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there also will your heart be.” This got me thinking of the story of Job and how he had it all. He had money, a family, status, and all of these other great, earthly things. Satan believed that if Job lost all of these things that he would stop worshiping God. Even after Job lost all of his money, his family was killed, and he lost his health and became ill, he still praised God. We all need to remember, no matter how wealthy we become or how great out earthly possessions are, to focus on God and where our true treasure lies.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Whats it like to be Godly and how that looks. We tend to “reflect” on past events and think we could have acted differently or come across more Godly than we did in the moment. I invited the Pax to start thinking more Godly in the present and even pre-event. This way to become a better and more powerful light of God on this earth.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Sometimes when that alarm goes off at 4:30 am we probably ask ourselves why.  Well recently one of our PAX shared a little wisdom with us.  “Getting old ain’t for sissies!”  That really got me thinking about what makes up a good long life, and what we don’t always think about is the suck.  You are going to hurt, your kids are going to keep you up all night, and basically life is just going to keep kicking your ass.  But here at F3 we have a little secret, and that’s the mental toughness we forge each morning.  We are preparing our minds and body for the suck, so when life does get tough we are ready.  Our family and friends rely on this strength, so be prepared and keep embracing the gloom.
