Intercede for your wives just as Christ intercedes on our behalf. When we pray we need to always include our wives in our prayers. As husbands we are called to present her as holy and blameless. Pray for her greatest need, (same as ours) for her to have a deeper relationship with Jesus in her life.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
2 practical techniques to battle sinful thoughts when they enter the mind: 1) focus on the cross – the ultimate price that was paid for you. This helps supply the motivation to dedicate our mind, bodies, actions and words to Him. We are not our own, we were bought with a price!  2) Rest in the absolute conviction that His ways are infinitely BETTER than ours. We see this proven time and time again throughout the Bible and history.
MOLESKIN:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Since my 2.0 goes to a Christian school, she has a verse to memorize nearly every week, and has ever since kindergarten. We’ve always used the drive time to school to learn that verse together. I really appreciate the time to dwell on the Word and let it sink in.
This week’s passage was Jeremiah 29:11-14. Verse 11 is pretty popular, but the one that caught me was verse 13: “You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.” We’re all seeking God, whether we know it or not. Everyone is looking to fill that hole that only He can. Seek Him with all your heart, and He’s promised that you will find Him.
MOLESKIN:
Shoulda started my watch when I laid out the course… Only got credit for half the miles I ran this morning!
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Thanks to everyone who brought snacks for Wesley House. Delivery this week!
