COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Three words that motivate and give reason to me.

Strength: I see this as the physical side of things. The strength to accomplish something you have always wanted to do or the ability to help someone in need. Used an example of a burning building and having the strength to help pull someone out or carry them from danger. or the physical strength to hike the Grand Canyon. Whatever the situation or surrounding you find yourself in, will you be ready for it physically?

Courage: Will you have to courage to do such things? It will take courage to help someone else in a fire if your in the same danger. It takes courage to sign up for and event like goruck or the barkley marathons, or whatever that great event or place might be for you.

Wisdom: None of the prior will matter if you do not have the wisdom needed to know and understand the situation your in. Being intelligent about your surroundings, like the burning building, or the weather conditions when hiking the grand canyon. We must be smart and seek the intelligence / wisdom to educate ourselves to make the right decisions.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Oh Well Part 1 is a song recorded in 1969 by Fleetwood Mac before the group had Christie MacVie, Lindsay Buckingham, and Stevie Nicks in the group. Written and sung by then lead guitarist Peter Green, the second verse is:

Now when I talk to God, I knew He’d understand; He said, “Stand next to me and I’ll be your guiding hand.  But don’t ask me what I think of you, I might not give the answer that you want me to.  Oh Well.

I don’t need to ask God that question because I know the answer.  He created me, pursued me in my sinful nature, and loved me enough to send His Son to live among us.  His Son loved me enough to bear the burden of my sin, to face rejection by the Father, and to die for me.  His Spirit is willing to live within me in spite of my sinfulness and filthy rags and loves me enough to lead me in my ongoing road to sanctification.  All Christians have that same love and assurance.  Just like we try to headlock other men and get them to join F3, we ought to headlock everyone with the good news of the Gospel

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The silliness of bunnies, eggs, candy, etc. is fun, but try to get as much of it out of the way as possible today and reserve tomorrow to celebrate and meditate on the real reason for Easter – Remembering the resurrection of our Savior Jesus Christ from the grave, sealing the long promised gift of Salvation. It’s even more free than F3 – He did everything for you.
MOLESKIN:
Great to have Moses’ dad with us this morning.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
