CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I have been challenged at work recently with an expectation additional leadership. Basically, have to figure out what I need to be doing on the fly. I have come to see the correlation of this to life in general. We say a lot: “Embrace the suck” but we should also include “Embrace the challenge”. Today’s PAX embraced the challenges that were thrown at them and excelled. HUGE shout out to everyone for encouraging those thrust into these positions this morning.

MOLESKIN:

Praise for prayers answered:

Waxjob has a contract on his house!!!

My father has had some heart trouble recently and we got some good news this week. Diagnosis isn’t as dire as originally suspected but still serious. Thanks to all the prayer warriors, it was drastically impactful and immensely appreciated.

Prayers needed:

Family that @Bartman works with had an unexpected death in the family. It’s hard to lose someone but especially hard when that family should have had a much longer time with them.

Waxjob needs a place to live for a month. If you know anyone that can rent a spot for a month, let him know.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

A simple truth: You don’t deserve forgiveness, grace or unconditional love.
Two thoughts:
1) For you guys who always feel unworthy, like you don’t deserve love or forgiveness – you’re right! You don’t…and neither do the rest of us, but it is freely offered and not yours to try to earn or pay for. Accept it with a grateful heart and feel the warmth and love of the one who bought it for you!
2) For you guys who have a hard time forgiving or letting go of things that have been perpetrated against you. If you don’t deserve the forgiveness and unconditional love that has been offered to you – you really don’t deserve to withhold those things from someone else. Choose to forgive and love the way it has been given to you – especially for folks who REALLY don’t deserve it.
Love God first, then everyone else. MOLESKIN
