CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“Now Thomas, one of the twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see in his hands the mark of the nails, and place my finger into the mark of the nails, and place my hand into his side, I will never believe.” Eight days later, his disciples were inside again, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.” Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and see my hands; and put out your hand, and place it in my side. Do not disbelieve, but believe.” Thomas answered him, “My Lord and my God!””

Now that the Michael Jordan documentary is coming out, a common occurrence is that young people that were arguing that Lebron James (or some other current player) was the greatest of all time is watching the highlights of Jordan’s career and turns to the older basketball fans to say, “yeah Jordan is the greatest of all time”. Seeing Jordan’s highlights has brought peace to the young and old basketball fans.

Seeing Jesus’ wounds brings peace to all. It is evidence that God loves us. In this time when there is much unrest in the world. Reflect on this truth that we have peace through Jesus.

6 HIMs made it out this morning

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Mark 12 – love others as yourself

How well do you love yourself?

Do you offer yourself grace when you fail or do you hold yourself to an impossible standard?

Does your self-talk build you up or does it tear you down?

Are you critical or encouraging?

Bottom line: if you loved others the way you love yourself, would they be better for it? If not, maybe it’s time for us to re-evaluate how well we are loving ourselves.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Proverbs 19:21 — “Many are the plans in the mind of a manbut it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand.”

A verse I’m guessing many of us have become familiar with recently.  Regardless of what you think about all that is going on with COVID-19 (I’m sure we all have a plethora of opinions), I encouraged the guys to let it be a humbling experience.  God is sovereign, He frustrates the plans of the nations (Psalm 33:10), He works all things for our good, and He alone is self-sufficient.  We are all dependent creatures whose every minute and day is in the hands of the Lord.  Let’s submit to His will, His plan, and stay humble.  Let’s learn to say “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that” (James 4:15).

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Giving 110% in everything you do. It’s funny how we can plan and talk a big talk about doing the best we can but seldom follow through with it. This break has I understand how fortunate I am your job and how I need to be giving more effort. Not just for myself, but so I can leave a legacy of my ethics to my kids and friends. Write the workout this morning I saw in front Imagine Dragons called Warriors came  on. Fit perfectly with what I was thinking and sharing. Here are the lyrics.

“As a child you would wait
And watch from far away
But you always knew that you’d be the one
That work while they all play
In youth you’d lay
Awake at night and scheme
Of all the things that you would change
But it was just a dream!
Here we are, don’t turn away now,
We are the warriors that built this town
Here we are, don’t turn away now
We are the warriors that built this town
From dust.
Will come
When you’ll have to rise
Above the best and prove yourself
Your spirit never dies!
Farewell, I’ve gone to take my throne above
But don’t weep for me
‘Cause this will be
The labor of my love
Here we are, don’t turn away now
We are the…“

MOLESKIN:

It was really great to get back out in the gloom with the PAX. I haven’t done much since I’ve been out so I’m sure I’ll be sore. But it’s worth it….it always is.
