7 HIMs reporting today

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Bear one anothers burdens.

Brethren, even if anyone is caught in any trespass, you who are spiritual, restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; each one looking to yourself, so that you too will not be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. But each one must examine his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another. For each one will bear his own load.
Galatians 6:1‭-‬5 NASB
We are called to step alongside our brothers and help them when needed, many times even when they don’t want the help because they believe they can do it themselves. We do this to not only build our brothers up, but also to remind ourselves that we are not an island unto ourselves. We need the reminder that we are not “All that” but that we need our brothers as much as they need us.

MOLESKIN:
I’m thankful for F3 and the men at the Brickyard that push me daily to get better and remind me that I am not the greatest but on the path to getting better every day.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Faith in action.
Like Father Abraham: left family and friends, start a new a career, move to unknown land, waited on a promised son, believed in promises by a God who is creator of the universe

Greatest Act- called to sacrifice his promised son on faith that he waited a lifetime for.

Don’t give up hope on your faith.  The promises and dreams we realize for our loved ones and friends is nearer than you think.  If not please know the process is making your faith stronger.  (Just ask the boys who can merkin walk.)

MOLESKIN:
Everybody got on the podium. No losers here. All champs.
