Job 1:21 “The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away.” 

I have spent most of my life in comfort. In recent years I have had hard times (financially, mentally, spiritually, physically, etc.), but not near as difficult as those that are truly in need. Today, I saw the men of the Asylum AM step up for a family that they did not even know, for a guy who is a regular at a completely different AO across town. I put the word out last night that a family at my school was in need. They don’t have the resources to get their daughter to school in order to graduate. The nature of my school (which, while a Knox County Public High school) is that it has ‘less than ideal’ transportation options and this family does not have the means to buy gas in order to get their daughter to school. She is a senior on the cusp of graduation and needs to attend regularly to earn her diploma. The generosity of the PAX of the Asylum, both in attendance and not, was overwhelming to me. I will be able to present this family with a $250 gas card from Weigals tomorrow morning. 

I say it often, but it is ALWAYS worth repeating… The High Impact Men of F3 and F3Knoxville are the best men I know. Jumping at opportunities to make our community a better place. I don’t know where I would be without this group, and I know that if I ever need anything, an F3 HIM will be right there to help me along the way.

Proverbs 4:23 – “Above all else guard your heart (i.e. your mind, will, and emotions), for it is the wellspring of life.”

BLUF – Guard your mind, set your standard and don’t quit. We are not meant to simply coast through life, we meant see every day as an opportunity to get better and make a difference. Life isn’t measured by failure or success, it’s measured by impact.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
After the Pandemic “normalizes”, we will never be the same. That may be a good thing in some areas. What things do we have in our lives that never need to be the same? That we need to peal away and keep that way. Spend time alone in the coming days identifying what has changed (or needs to change) during this year that is a good thing (or will be).

MOLESKIN:
The Saturday before Christmas is by far the funnest Q of the year. The Christmas music (wireless speaker) throughout the workout was clutch.
