CIRCLE OF TRUST / BOM:

“To be secure means to isolate and fortify the “I” but it is just the feeling of being an isolated “I” which makes me feel lonely and afraid. In other words, the more security I can get, the more I shall want”. To put it still more plainly; the desire for security and the feeling of insecurity are the same thing. To hold your breath is to lose your breath.” – Alan Watts, The Wisdom of Insecurity

I want to leave you guys with a simple mantra today.
Amor Fati

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Gal. 1:10 – “For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.”  I find myself more often than I want to be true that my reactions or actions are about first pleasing someone else and then God.  If I’m a servant of Christ, He needs to be who I’m focusing on pleasing, not anyone else.  The gift of the gospel is that God pleased with me because He is pleased with Jesus.  It’s out of that motivation that I want to love, serve, and please Christ, instead of others.
