CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
John 15:19 – If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

As HIMs in this world, YHWH calls us to be different.  It is easy to conform to the ways of this world when society tells you what a man should be when in reality, our only example should be Yeshua (Jesus).  He showed us what it was to love unconditionally, teach without belittling, motivate without yelling, and be not of this world but in this world because the world will hate us when we are not conforming to its standard.  We should always be on the lookout for the enemy attacking us and trying to tell us that “it’s not that bad, is it really?”  Everything we do, we should do for the glory of YHWH because even if nobody else is looking, he is and he’s the only one that matters.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

When I survey the wondrous cross

On which the Prince of glory died,

My richest gain I count but loss,

And pour contempt on all my pride.

Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,

Save in the death of Christ my God!

All the vain things that charm me most,

I sacrifice them to His blood.

See from His head, His hands, His feet,

Sorrow and love flow mingled down!

Did e’er such love and sorrow meet,

Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

Were the whole realm of nature mine,

That were a present far too small;

Love so amazing, so divine,

Demands my soul, my life, my all.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’m in Customer Experience for my job, and I just got back from Disney world. A good book on the topic is the Experience Economy. It talks about the progression of economic value. How we started in a commodity based economy, progressed to goods, then service, and now Experience. At each level, people attribute a hire value and are willing to pay more for it. Hence, me paying way more than I should on stuffed animals at Disney. Anyway, the point being that an even higher economic offering is transformation. The best example is working out. You subject yourself to a bunch of uncomfortable experiences for the end result of a physical transformation in your body. And Disney is fun, but the more meaningful time I spend in the long run is in the things that invest in my own transformation. So where are you placing value? On stuff? On kicking back and having cool experiences? Or on investing time in transformation, physical, spiritual, etc.?
