CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I have had something on my heart recently that often comes back around. I am sure we all think often about the examples we set for those around us. A lot of times these are not intentional because they aren’t planned…they just happen because someone is watching. I heard a song on the radio in the morning yesterday as I was driving to work. It was “Watching you” by Rodney Atkins. In this song, he lists a couple of examples that he inadvertently sets for his son. One of them was a four letter word that he let slip and another was his prayer for help to be a better example. His son witnessed both and mimicked his dad because he wanted to be just like him. This got me thinking about the example that I set for my children. Do I let things slip and is this the only type of example that I show? Or do I intentionally show an example that I would be proud to have my children follow?

“Train up a child in the way he should go, Even when he is old he will not depart from it.” – Proverbs 22:6 NASB1995

Heb 10:24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
Eccl 4:9 Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their toil. 10 For if they fall, one will lift up his fellow. But woe to him who is alone when he falls and has not another to lift him up!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The wicked flee when no one is pursuing them, but the righteous are as bold as a lion.  Proverbs 28:1

Starting with a side bar: My non-running daughter prefers the version of this verse that says, “only the wicked run when no one is chasing them”  But I want to focus on the second half of the verse and the topic of Courage as it relates to being bold in facing failures aka shortcomings aka lies aka sin (that’s what God calls it) in our life.  Are we masters of “perception management” knowing what people think of us and keeping our image up? Or are we real, transparent and bold/courageous enough to be real with people and confess our sins to God and then to others?  It’s hard to be bold.  It’s hard to be honest, but that is what we are called to.

Allows me a silly analogy to the tree removal we did this morning.  Removing the clutter and lies from our life isn’t easy work and we get used to operating by just walking/working around them.  Pretty soon, we don’t even see them. But God will show us, through other guys in our lives most often, that we need to remove the things that block our full potential.   I hope the time off today for many of us allow us time to have God show us where lies are in our life.

The other part of this verse that got me thinking is this sounds like a chicken or the egg thing.  The Boldness can comes from Righteousness and Righteousness comes from Boldness.

So what starts it?   (Hint: The church answer works here)  God.   God starts the work in our heart.  Righteousness comes from God; and when being right with God can boldly face life.  But it takes courage to face the sin in our lives.  Only the Holy Spirit can give us the boldness to face our sin and that is through the finished work of Jesus Christ.
