CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’m still focused on my goal of being positive this year.  It’s not been easy.  Most outside influences are not going to be positive.  It’s bad for their business.  I have to look internally and within my immediate sphere – me, my family, my friends, my work, my F3 brothers, my community, etc.  I may not be able to directly affect the global or even national narrative, but I can affect the narrative on my level in how I live my life and, in doing so, perhaps affect a larger scale indirectly through others that I impact along the way (e.g., my kids or even some random stranger).  Regardless, whatever my plans are (or whatever happens whether planned or not) and whatever I do (or don’t do), I’m going to try to be positive and find peace knowing that God is in control and is guiding my way.  See Proverbs 16:9 (“We can make our plans, but the Lord determines our steps.”).

MOLESKIN:
We did 100 SSHs, 100 burpees, 100 pull-ups, 100 curls, and 100 LBCs (plus a few other things) before 6:15 a.m.  How many people can say that?  How many people can say that they did that much work by the end of the day?

Luke 2:39-40 – When Jesus’ parents had fulfilled all the requirements of the law of the Lord, they returned home to Nazareth in Galilee. There the child grew up healthy and strong. He was filled with wisdom, and God’s favor was on him.

The Christmas story is incredible and powerful, but it’s not the end. Jesus lived a life that serves as an example to us. What is one aspect of Jesus’ character you wish was more a part of you? Make a plan to make Jesus’ whole story a part of your daily life & routine.
