CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I’m a worrier.  I have been for as long as I can remember.  I’m not pessimistic at all…I’m a glass is half full kind of guy.  However, I worry.  Am I doing enough for my kids, particularly my 15-year old daughter?  Am I too strict, not strict enough? Do I support my wife enough?  Will I hurt my knee even worse and not be able to run in the ½ marathon in 3 weeks?  Am I overtraining/undertraining?  Will I raise enough money to help all of the cancer patients that need help or will I have to cut programs?

Lots of verses to help with my/our worries…

  • So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. Galatians 6:9
  • But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.  (Isaiah 40:28-31)
  • Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Matthew 11:28
  • Cast all your anxiety on Him because he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7
  • Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Psalm 105:4
  • Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6
  • Cast your cares on the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall. Psalm 55:22
  • I can do everything through him who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13
  • So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Lately, I have felt a little lost with my faith and what God wants for my life.  I’ve been in a funk and trying to get out of it.  I’ve started to ask God if He can guide me.  I’ve been searching for scripture that will help with focus.

Isaiah 43:2 “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you.”

Psalm 37:5 “Commit your way to the Lord.  Trust in Him, and He will act.”

Isaiah 41:10 ” Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.  Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you.”

Philippians 4:13 “I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength.”

MOLESKIN:

Prayers for several F3 brothers recovering from injuries..

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

This coming Sunday, February 4, F3 members will be leading a special workout with kids from the Mechanicsville and Broadway areas. In addition to the workout, we will also be delivering some much needed sports equipment.

All you have to do is show up. Come out, have fun and interact with the kids and let them see and experience positive, male role models. The workout will take place at The Wesley House (1719 Reynolds St. Knoxville, TN 37921) from 2:00pm – 3:00pm.  We will do a 45 min workout with the kids where we will partner up for team building exercises and gather for a BOM at the end.
