Kinda reused a Bomb Shelter BOM here:

Don’t be scared to live your life. Growth and true happiness occurs outside of your comfort zone. We have to push ourselves in every aspect of our lives to step out and do something different. Don’t shy away from something just because it is scary or unknown. Just do it. It’s better to try and fail than to never know what could have been.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Too many times do we ask God to solve our problems for us rather than asking for the strength to battle it on our own. Sometimes the trials we are put through are to make us better men and leaders for our community, and it is our duty to make our way through what is put in front of us. God will always lend us his strength.

Isaiah 41:10

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.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A lot of times we tell ourselves that we don’t want to do something. Sometimes we just have to do it and not think about it. I did not want to get up this morning and work out, because my legs were so sore from the last few days. I force myself to take the Q so I would get up. I’m much happier because I did.

More importantly than that, there are several times in life when we feel like we should do something but we stop ourselves from doing it. When someone needs help we think to ourselves, I’m not qualified to do that, or I don’t know them that well to help them, that’s not my skill set etc. When people need help they don’t need people saying to them…call me if you need anything, or I’m here if you need me. Step in. Tell them, I’m coming by to help you on Tuesday….is that a good day? Or I’m bringing you a meal, what day is best. Or, let’s go have coffe and talk, how is Mon morning? No one wants to ask for help.

MOLESKIN:
Hard work was achieved by the PAX this morning. Not much chatter but we got it done
