CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
My now double confession. The one is obvious. I was late for my own Q. I am sorry and somehow neglected a side thing of turning my alarm back on after these 2 weeks away.

The second is much harder to admit, but oddly due to another simple mistake. Jesus holds us men to a high standard when he said, “Whoever looks at a woman with lustful intent has committed adultery in his heart.” Normally, given my past addiction to pornography, my first and only defence against these random temptations is to humble myself and pray immediately asking Jesus to give me his righteousness and to renew my mind. I don’t know what caused me to try and deal with the thought in my own strength, but it didn’t go well. I failed on the simple task of setting my alarm (so to speak) and trusting in God’s strength and righteousness to rescue me from the situation. So my heart quickly spiraled into a bad place and even began to seek out borderline pornographic content. Thank God for my wife, Carolyn! She called me in that exact moment to chat. I ended up confessing to her and God started stepping in to heal my brokenness. How much is that like Christ!? How much were the HIMs this morning like Christ as they sought me out in the gloom wondering where I was? Jesus leaves the 99 and seeks the 1. I’m thankful for men I call friends who echoed that attitude this morning in leaving the comfort of their beds and heading out into the rain to seek me out.
MOLESKIN:
If you are dealing with something. Don’t deal with it alone. You need others to help you whether you realize it or not. Don’t be like I was and try to hide it for years and years. Get it out in the light.

Don’t forget about all the Hardship Hill stuff! Check the slack.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Spoke on the diffence between reacting and responding to a situation. Reactions are gut reactions that often aren’t our best. A response allows us to separate ourselves from the stimulus and pause to consider how we want to respond. Respond, don’t react.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Resilience. Just learned about creepy AI that is learning how to exploit weaknesses in human decision making. To me this means we need to have some resolve on the things that matter and be resistant. We just learned we can do this physically. But we also need to do this mentally and emotionally too. Just know that you can make it, and you have brothers right there with you all along the way.
