CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Gen. 15:1 “Do not be afraid, I am your shield; your reward shall be very great.” God and Abram have a conversation about the covenant between them. There is an odd ritual where a flame passes between the sacrificed animals to show that whoever breaks the covenant will suffer the same fate as the animals. 

God does not break His covenant with us, but He does suffer punishment for us by sending His son to die on the cross for our infidelities. 

Remember to ask God in prayer, today and every day to show us the areas of our lives where we do not trust in Him. Look to the Lord in His strength; Seek to serve Him constantly.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Malcolm Gladwell – Outliers. All about success. Great book.

Lays his points out through a series of really interesting vignettes—quick read. (Or listen)

Closes the book with this:

“The successful are those who have been given opportunities and who have had the strength and presence of mind to seize them.”

Reflect on the opportunities we’ve been given and how different life could have been 

Reflect on how well you’re leading yourself right now

But also reflect on who you know, who has what it takes to succeed and just needs an opportunity.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

9 HIMs including 1 FNG, welcome Trunk

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

With the gift of wonder and awe, also known as “Fear of the Lord” we are aware of the glory and majesty of God. A person with wonder and awe knows that God is the perfection of all we desire. Fear of the Lord is not “serville fear” or a fear of punishment, but a “filial fear” likened to a fear of disappointing parents.

This gift is often so misunderstood. We often think of fear and hope as opposites, but fear of the Lord confirms the virtue of hope. This gift of the Holy Spirit gives us the desire not to offend God, as well as the certainty that God will supply us with the grace that we need in order to keep from offending Him. 

MOLESKIN:

Prayers for all HIMs on vacation and traveling this summer. Prayers for Ribbed’s wife and family, especially during their upcoming travel. Prayers for my family as we are at a crossroads with work.
