CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This month I’m trying to express more gratitude for the things i have in my life. While we all can be grateful for F3, what it has done for us and the PAX, i challenged the pax to think of other things we are grateful for.

  • Smuggler-My wife and the change she has made in my realatiohsip with my daughter. We have gone through some hard times, a lot due to my own bad relationship decisions. However my wife has come in and been an amazing force in my life and has made a world of difference.
  • Pinocchio- His son, being a new father has given him a new perspective on life.
  • Veep- His job and the the ability that has provided him to do things for his family.

Take time to let those around you know you’re grateful for them.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Read this quote from the opening to the album “Worthy” by Beautiful Eulogy.

We will not lose heart
Even though this present age will waste away
We will surely suffer, but it’s a slight momentary trouble
The deconstruction is painful, but the transformation is beautiful
When we the children of God are crushed under the heavy affliction of this world, be reminded that it’s weightless in comparison to the eternal measure of God’s glory
We have lost our eyes for the unseen and have swallowed the false hope of the visible
We must realize the empty grave and revel in the certainty of His resurrection with assurance of renewal, considering it worthy to suffer for the faith
So we will worship while we wait


MOLESKIN:
Good work, men!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
James 1:2-4 NIV  Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you face trials of many kinds because the testing of your faith creates perseverance.  Let perseverance finish its work so that you can be mature and complete.

When you come to F3 the Q gives you a trial to face.  You have the choice to persevere and make it to the other side or not.  We all face trials in life.  My default reaction to a trial is to say “oh, man, ugh, why do I have to deal with this.”…..I want my life to be easy.  This verse suggests to me that life isn’t supposed to be easy!  Spoiler Alert!  The trials are NECESSARY to create Perseverance.  The Perseverance is Necessary for me to be a completed work and be ready to do God’s will.  Choose to Persevere Today.

Prayer Requests taken and lifted up.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Embrace the challenge everyday to not shy away from the difficult things in life.
