CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
How many times have we overlooked all this trash? *gestures to the 12 trash bags we used.* We don’t see it because we are busy with other stuff. Or we do see it and whatever we are doing prevents us from dealing with it. So it is in our lives. The little bits of trash pile up on us if we are not intentional about dealing with it. So let’s roll up our sleeves and get to work.
MOLESKIN:
Important tasks, done consistently over time, have a cumulative effect. Urgent tasks rarely have that effect.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Its funny how God can continue to push things on your heart. In the past week, I’ve randomly listened to 2 sermons speaking on hospitality. This got me reflecting on a conversation I had with Drifter and Limbo recently one Saturday at coffeeteria. As a solid group of HIMs that lead communities, we owe it to Blount county, even to each other, to give back. We each possess strengths that when combined with a group setting become that much more powerful. We are called by the Bible to be generous with our time and financial resources as we feel compelled to give. I know that I have not been giving as much as I am able. I challenge each of us to pick up an initiative as they come along and challenge the men of F3 Blount County to participate. Let’s get ideas flowing on the community outreach channel which has not been used. In a time of divisiveness, polarization, and extremism, we are needed now more than ever. We can accomplish more as a group than as an individual.

Ecclesiastes 4:9 Two are better than one because they have good return for their labor.

2 Corinthians 9: 6-8

Whoever does sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever does generously will reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

Matthew 25: 34-45

“For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger and you invited me into your home. I was naked and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison and you visited me. I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sister, you were doing it to me.”

MOLESKIN:

Hospitable: given to generous and cordial reception of guests

Generous: showing a readiness to give more of something, money and time

Philippian’s 4:6-7 (NIV)

Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. (And when you endeavor to do so, He will bless you with health, prosperous days, and level pathways. He will endear you toward all and long will be your days on earth.) And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

OK, so the part in parenthesis is not actual biblical text.  That part is too often what the world wants us to believe about our relationship with God.  Rather, the last sentence sums it up.  God will protect our heart and our mind so that we may not let the things of this world influence our emotions and our thought.  And peace shall reign forever and ever.

Here are two major views about Jesus:

Modern Jesus                             Biblical Jesus

Preaches only on love                   Preaches God’s righteousness

Gives you health & wealth             Gives salvation, hope, peace, & joy

Never says anything negative         Warns of sin, judgement, & hell

Loved & accepted by the world       Hated & despised by the world

Serves your will                             Exalts God the Father’s will

Hates to offend you or others          Offends the world with the truth

Please consider these two views and pray to know and accept the true Savior.

MOLESKIN:
Thankful for Drifter’s work with refugees and support of his neighbor.  Prayers for Rep Sleepy and ESPY for healing.
