CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I heard a passage on Sunday and then again on Monday when Kick Flip referenced it at Shamrock…
“Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.” (1 John 2:15-17)

God made this beautiful world and all of the good things in it, but the “from the world” John talks about in verse 16 is a reference to our hearts and the importance we place on those things and stuff.

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven….For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” John was talking about our hearts. Our treasure.

Another question that got me recently was “If someone were to ask your children what does your father love the most, or think the most about?” What would they say??

Life is fleeting. Think about the time you have left here and where you are investing it. Is it God honoring? Is it eternal or does it collect dust? Make your treasure something that matters!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Lately, I’ve been running close to my house and my 4-year-old son, Paul, wanted to join me one day. Around the 1-mile point, he slipped on some gravel and cut his hand up pretty good. There were tears and we took a couple of minutes to reset, but he got back up and ran the half mile back home. Of course, I was proud and I’ve used that story over and over with him when he needs some extra encouragement, reminding him of how tough and brave he can be.

T-claps to 5K for his openness last Friday. I appreciate the courage to speak out about a very important topic. As I was thinking about his words, I kept coming back to the story with my son. It’s easy to become discouraged when we stumble and fall, but it’s getting back up again when our Father holds out his hand that’s important.

Proverbs 24:16 (NLT) – The godly may trip seven times, but they will get up again. But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I have 2 personal convictions I’m going to share.  Perhaps some of you need to hear this.
1) I talk too much. Much of what I say I hear at the same time you hear it.
When words are many, transgression is not lacking, but whoever restrains his lips is prudent.
Proverbs 10:19
Jesus says in Luke 6:
“It is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth; this defiles a person.”
I’m not talking about swearing but maybe that is a part of it, I’m not sure I really care if you swear from time to time.  I am bothered by the use of Jesus Christ as an explitive
But have a filter and make sure that filter is Truth and encouragement. are words building up?

**Give thought to your words.**
2) God wants to work on not just my words spoken but also the thoughts and and my heart

A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart
and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.

what are you thinking? Would you verbalize those things?

Are you improving what you are thinking?
Perhaps it is best summed up by paul in Phil 4;8
“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure,
“
whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

**Give thought to your thoughts**

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The warrior ethos (AKA Jedi Training) consist of 13 pillars: commitment, honor, respect, prepared, faithful, fighter, hungry, humble, lover, teachable, firestarter, truthful, and generous.
Each one is tied to a Bible verse.

Today I’m discussing the 13th pillar which is the final pillar:
Generous
The verse for this pillar is Proverbs 11:25

“The generous will prosper; those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.”
– Proverbs 11:25 NLT

You can’t out give God! I encourage you to be more generous… This is not just with money, but with time as well. We were put here to serve. Give blood, volunteer for something you’re passionate about, help someone without expecting or wanting anything in return. These acts not only help others, but they are so rewarding. You will feel good as well !!

Jesus shows us how it’s done in 2 Corinthians 8:9 it says:
“You know the generous grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that by his poverty he could make you rich.” – 2 Corinthians 8:9

Keep giving and you will never be without!!
