CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

One my favorite things about F3 is how it’s helped me through some challenging times in my life.  Whether you are facing uncertainty, loss, or just stress F3 is that constant thing that helps me get my head right.  I took a little time off over the pandemic, and I can attest that I’m not better alone.

Proverbs 17:17

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Easter has come and gone. It’s always been one of my favorite holidays. I’ve always been a very stubborn and found it difficult to forgive others who have wronged me in the past. I think this is why I am drawn to Easter because it is a time for forgiveness. Stripped, bound, beaten and crucified, Jesus called for God to forgive those who persecuted him. In times of distress and during the trials of our own lives, may we have the love and resolve to forgive those who have wronged us.

Jesus died on the cross to forgive all humanity of their sins including past, present, and future sins. Although we are imperfect beings, I think we can draw from this act of love and forgiveness. Jesus calls for us to love our enemies and forgive those who have trespassed against us. May we all put our judgement aside and live into this moving forward and become more Christlike.

We are Easter people. Spread the Good News.

MOLESKIN:
Luke 23:34

“Father, forgive them for they do not know what they are doing.”

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Leadership, its what F3 is built one. Yes we are here to get stronger and improve our fitness but the main goal is to build community leadership. Often people wait to be told to lead, however if you are waiting to be told to lead its to late. I found a wonderful quote this morning that really shows this principle. “A position of authority is neither necessary nor sufficient for the exercise of leadership”-Eric Werkowitz

Don’t wait to be told to lead, find those voids of leadership and fill them. no mater if its at work, home, family or community. Be bold.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Find something in your life that brings you real happiness and joy. Money can bring you happiness when you get that new car or go on that new vacation, but eventually that will diminish. For me, having my son has brought me that happiness. No amount of money can take that away from me, and I would spend every dollar I had to keep it. Find that thing in your life and embrace it.
