THE WORD
I recently discovered that my wife often adds people to her daily, weekly, and monthly task lists. It’s a simple way to remind herself to take a minute and thank someone, tell them she loves them, or catch up with an old friend. It’s a very simple way to mix random acts of kindness into our busy days. I encourage everyone to pick a person that haven’t reached out to in a while and reach out to that person this week. Whether it’s a simple high-five or an hour at lunch, there’s a good chance somebody around could use a pick-me-up.

I picked up this Q at the last minute because of P-Nut’s delay in West TN. I had been thinking of picking up a Q in November but hadn’t selected one. When I read P-Nut’s message on Group Me, I had two options: (1) Wait for someone to step up or (2) be that someone. I decided to be that someone and I owe that confidence to F3 Knoxville. Everywhere I look in this PAX, someone is working harder than I am. It’s incredibly motivating and I can’t express an appropriate level of gratitude for the impact it’s made in my life. You guys are incredible!

WORD

Doubt is something I have dealt with my entire life. I have doubted my ability to Q among many other things. Most importantly, I have doubted my salvation. In 1 John 5:13, John says “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may KNOW that you have eternal life.” God does not want us to doubt, but if we do, He is always faithful and comes through for us. If you have questions about the security of your faith, I suggest the book Stop Asking Jesus Into Your Heart by J.D. Greear.

“Behavioral research shows that humans can become acclimated to almost anything if they’re exposed to it frequently…It’s why lottery winners, after the initial thrill of winning, end up about as happy as they were before. What does this mean for parents and kids? Anything we provide regularly will become the new norm, whether it’s post-game milkshakes or a certain brand of clothes. If our kids have gotten used to having their beds made or dinner table set, they’ll come to expect that, too”.

The above is an excerpt from article discussing how to raise children without creating the sense of entitlement that is so common in American youth. It’s important to remember that consistency with our actions create what we (and our loved ones) consider “normal”. This “normal” is what our kids, wives, friends, and co-workers come to expect from us. As HIMs, we need to make sure that our “normal” creates a positive and grateful environment for those around us. Everyone around us notices when we help someone, but they also notice things we DON’T do.

This PAX is incredible. I pushed hard this morning and everywhere I looked – somebody was pushing a little harder. One of our FNGs pushed so hard he almost tossed his cookies. Way to finish strong, men!

P-nut talked about anxiety and stress.  Reflected on the need to give your cares over to God and be thankful for your life, gifts and blessings.  Philippians 4:6

P-nut then prayed us out- including a prayer request from Tank.

Lots of mumblechatter from the PAX.  Woodshack started us off with lots of wet gaseous noises during warm-ups, followed by his discovery of dog poop in the parking lot.  Junk had the line of the day when he described Peyton as a “small package.”  It went steadily downhill from there…  Great morning with the PAX!

Ephesians 5:25
Spoke about relationships and how Christ loved the church. How we should love our spouses as he loved us. Unconditionally and not selfishly.

“Love seeks its happiness in the happiness of the beloved. It will even suffer and die for the beloved in order that its joy might be full in the life and purity of the beloved.This is how Christ loved us, and this is how he calls us to love one another.” From Desiring God pages 206-7.
