Read a passage from 1 Timothy 6.  Basic take home point is to keep your focus on Christ and to let him be your motivation.  Don’t be lured by money, success or wordly pleasure…rather let Christ be your goal.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

An encouragement to live by grace.  It’s so easy to fall into the performance trap — thinking that our acceptance with God is based on our performance.  On good days, we become proud and think God owes us.  On bad days, we get discouraged and condemned and think God will punish us.

Our acceptance with God is completely based on the righteous life, sacrificial death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  God now sees us though and in Christ.

“Our worst days are never so bad that you are beyond the reach of God’s grace. And your best days are never so good that you are beyond the need of God’s grace.”
― Jerry Bridges, The Discipline of Grace

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Talked about the fact that we are made for relationship and to be looking out for other men who share common experiences with you.  We often think we are going through hard times alone and that no one could understand our situation.  The fact is, other people have dealt with similar situations to those that cause us worry and pain.  It could be the reason you are going through your current bout with pain is so you can support a fellow man when he is struggling and needs someone to lean on.   So, if you find others dealing with the same issues you have dealt with….use that as an opportunity to engage with them and lift them up.

MOLESKIN:

We had a first today:  while sprinting the matterhorn a car came down the hill following a dog.  Turns out they were “walking” the dog while chain smoking a pack of cigarettes.   Nothing quite like sprinting through 2nd hand smoke!
