(Mosey across the street to opposite parking lot)
(A very distinct skunk smell is in the air — and no, it wasn’t the newest scent of Axe body spray, this was clearly a skunk. Cutting Parking Lot #2 short — PAX execute 25 u0/down squats and mosey to Parking Lot 3. Shame, Parking Lot #2 had a cool name – but in the wild wild gloom, in a 19 to 1 battle of PAX vs. skunk – the skunk wins.)

“The Power to Change our Thoughts”
I shared that it’s been a really hard year for us all and whether we realize it or not it’s probably affected how we think and our thought life (whether we give it credit or not).
So I heard this sermon by a pastor by Jerry Flowers about thought life and the power we have to change the way we think and he listed the exercise below to prove this.
Picture a lion in your head.
Got it?
Now picture a a tiger in your head.
Got it?
You just proved to yourself that you have the power to change your thoughts.
The way we think is important! How we think about ourselves, how we think about our life and family and communities, it’s important.
I say this as an encouragement so that if you’ve ever found yourself in a place like I’ve been in and out of this year – desperation and just being tired and exhausted – (1) Give the situation you’re in to the Lord and (2) Realize you have the power to change how you think.
Stay in the fight men!
