CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Simple word – make every effort to be positive to other people. Treat people the way you want to be treated. Do not look for the negative/find fault and criticize, look for the positive. It is easy to find fault- don’t fall into that trap and do not jump in on group criticism (especially on social media).  Be loyal to the abscent (do not criticize those who are not present).  Follow this at work and at home.
MOLESKIN:
Pray for @Sugarhill friend who is undergoing cancer diagnosis. Pray for @Thunderstruck and his family whose mother has cancer and is not responding to treatment. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

1 Thessalonians 5:11 ESV /

Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

One thing I appreciate about our F3 brotherhood is how we encourage one another.  I always hear brothers exhorting one another to keep up the good work, to keep pushing.  I never hear brothers criticize other brothers for being too slow, for not keeping up.  We work hard but we do so with a great deal of support.  It works the same way with the time we share from our hearts.  We praise one another when the news is good and are ready to console and wrap our arms around anyone who shares something painful or difficult.  Keep up the good work.  Keep striving to be excellent but keep encouraging one another to reach for excellence.  Men need encouragement and it is the iron sharpening iron aspect of F3 which is one of the truly magical things about our group.  We take that creed seriously and in so doing, we reach out to our fellow man.
MOLESKIN:
Prayers for J-Lo’s recovery from torn meniscus and prayers for co-worker of Sparkler and her husband who was recently diagnosed with colon cancer.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
