Lt. Col. George Russel Barber was a chaplain who landed on the beaches of Normandy on DDay. He ended up getting stuck to where he couldn’t scale the wall in front of him and had to dig a fox hole to shelter himself from enemy fire. When asked about it, he said:

”I prayed as if everything depended on the Lord, and I dug as if everything was up to me. The Lord and I got that foxhole pretty deep”

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
One of my favorite scripture readings is Isaiah 6:8. I try to incorporate it into my prayer life as often as I can.

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”

And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

Without hesitation Isaiah offers himself up to the Lord. May we ask God to use our skills and talents to change this world. Don’t wait on other people to fulfill a void that Gods calls YOU to fill. Ask God to send you into this world and do good for the Kingdom.

MOLESKIN:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We are all used to having instant gratification. Between 1 click shopping on Amazon delivered the next day, to not even having to go into grocery stores to get food anymore. Our gratification timeline does not line up with God’s. Time for him is nothing like it is for us. It’s hard for us to be patient for things when they come to us so quickly now. He has a plan for us and it’s going to happen on His timeline, not ours. Be patient, and the things that are meant to happen will happen when He planned for it.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
PT Barnum once said “Comfort is the enemy of progress.”…It’s only when we step outside our comfort zone that we truly improve.

Encourage and challenge the Pax to step out of their comfort zones

  • stepping up to Q a beatdown
  • stepping into leadership wit the Arsenal AO launch
  • Sign up and commit to your first 5K or Marathon
  • Maybe you have already done the above, how about an obstacle course? Hardship Hill plug 🙂
  • What about 50 miles….100? crazy! ya, but why not?!

Maybe this resonates more from a job standpoint for you, have you become complacent in your work environment, let this be a call out to dig for more!

If your walking in fear you not walking in faith

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:.
One word seems to keep showing up whenever I have reflection and that’s COURAGE. Two quotes on courage spoke to me last night.

One isn’t necessarily born with courage, but one is born with potential. Without courage, we cannot practice any other virtue with consistency. We can’t be kind, true, merciful, generous, or honest. – Maya Angelou

Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace. The soul that knows it not knows no release from little things. – Amelia Earhart

I challenge us all to take on life with courage, lead with it, share it with those close to you, and be a shining example in our communities. Lead with courage and don’t be tempted by fear.

MOLESKIN:

Please keep one of my employees in your prayers, her father suffered a major heart attack and is in the ICU. Also my daughter starts playing lacrosse tomorrow, first time ever. Keep her in your prayers that she is safe but also has the drive and passion to be successful.
