John 15:13 “There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friend.” We’ve all heard the verse and understand the sacrifice. It is the ultimate act of love and service for our fellow human. But Jesus calls us to love everyone, we are all brothers, friends, neighbors. I need to have that kind of love for people I don’t like or am indifferent to, the same as I have for those I love.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A man was traveling India when he stopped at a village that used elephants for travel and other purposes. The elephants were tied up with ropes they could easily have escaped.

The man asked the villagers about this and was told that the same ropes were used from when the elephants were babies. They learned that the rope was too strong and by the time they were grown they accepted their limits and didn’t try to pull the rope anymore

Far too often we do the same. We accept limitations that we could overcome if we tried. It’s important to keep pushing ourselves and not accept limits

MOLESKIN:
Thoughts are with Postpone and Pinocchio’s family as well as with Nair’s friend Viktoriya

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

If you want the life you want, it will cost you the life you have.

Proverbs 13:19- A longing fulfilled is sweet to the soul, but fools detest turning from evil.

New Living Translation- It is pleasant to see dreams come true, but fools refuse to turn from evil to attain them.

All change starts with telling the truth about how things are now. Observe your habits- what do you tell yourself, where are you or what are you doing when you mess up your goals. You live on brain patterns. We don’t know that we’re checked out until we check back in. It’s amazing what change you can drive when you do check in.

“You step in 0% of the dog poop that you see.”

  • Practice is a process, not a destination. Did you know self guided missles miss there target 90% of the time? They have an algorithmic called course correction.
  • Who do you want to be on November 20th? Set goals for your work, biological, and family self. Identify one goal for each that you can do this week

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Been having an odd few weeks. Been thinking about changing up careers and all sorts of crazy stuff. At the root of it all is a sense that I want more direction from God on what I should be focusing on with work, home, and serving others. Got a bit of a Holy Spirit gut check when He asked me to look at the “resume” of my last few weeks at home. I had been tense and not very encouraging or helpful to my family. If I were looking at hiring myself for similar service/work with others, I would not pick me for the job. While this was extremely convicting and humbling, it also gave me a lot of clarity and peace. I need to be focusing on what’s right in front of me as practice for whatever is to come. I need to face helping out around the house with joy rather than frustration. When I am faithful with this little, then I can be entrusted with much.
MOLESKIN:
Veep wanted it noted that for the Farmer carry, I was partnered with the 2.0 and had one brick. I will also note that the 2.0 did not carry my CMU, so there…. Also need to note that this was absolutely brutal. Only reuse when needing to punish someone.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Of the chain is postponed until aug 21. Moses’s thing is still on July 17. Be sure to sign up for head count. Also a 3rd F type thing is happening on Aug 14 at Swerve’s church. See slack for details.

Story of a boy and girl. The boy traded his marbles for the girl’s candy, but kept his favorite marble for himself. That evening, the girl was happy with her new marbles, but the boy couldnt help but think that the girl had cheated him as he had cheated her. It is best to approach relationships giving it your all, because if you hold back, you may be less pleased with your relationship.s
