CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“Patience is a virtue” but not a strong virtue of mine.

Impatience can be defined as a strong serge of animosity toward the weaknesses, faults and failures of others…a bad driver, a long line, a coworker, a spouse or child taking a while to get ready.

Stephen Covey – told a story about a man and his wild kids getting on a subway one Sunday morning; the kids were throwing people’s newspapers, yelling, etc. while the man just just sat there ignoring them. Covey asked the man if we man was going to discipline his kids; the man said his wife, their mother, just died and he guesses the kids aren’t sure how to process her death nor did he. Covey went from irritated to compassionate towards the man.

In situations…Be Patient. Show Empathy.

Remember, we sin every day so God has tremendous patience for us.  We should strive to be patient like him.

15 Men Battled the Hydra: Butterfingers, Deep Dish, Drifter, Fins, Flash, Iceman, Moses, Mr. Rogers, Pinnocchio, Pup, Snorkel, Squeaker, Squiggly, Waxjob, and Woodshack.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The hydra is a metaphor for our own self doubt, fear, and anger. Negative emotions can only create more harm in our life. Remember emotions are not something that happen to us. We choose how to react to our emotions and we can only become better by cauterizing negative thinking and defeating the hydra.
MOLESKIN:
HYDRA LERNAIA (Lernaean Hydra) was a gigantic, nine-headed water-serpent, which haunted the swamps of Lerna. Herakles (Heracles) was sent to destroy her as one of his twelve labours, but for each of her heads that he decapitated, two more sprang forth. So with the help of Iolaos (Iolaus), he applied burning brands to the severed stumps, cauterizing the wounds and preventing the regeneration.

BOM

Be a part of a men’s group and you will be a better believer. As part of mine I am leading a session on wives next week. My first thought was to go into the Word and see what God said about wives. He says:

Proverbs 18:22

“He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.”

Ephesians 5:25

“Husbands love your wife as Christ loved the church.”

I can honestly say I haven’t always been the best husband. Or at least the husband my wife deserves. Thankfully she hasn’t caught on that she could do better… but if I am supposed to love her like Christ loved the church, it means I’m supposed to be kind to her, fight for her, pray for her, lead her, and love her with all my heart. Thankfully God and wives forgive us when we don’t do as we should.

And while I believe that Valentine’s Day is a holiday made up by card, chocolate, and flower companies to offset their losses during the holiday season, we are supposed to show our wives how much we love them tomorrow, I encourage you to not let it just be tomorrow, but everyday.

We joke about the inspiration book for today, “Women’s Heath Little Book of Exeecises”, and the pictures in the book, we shouldn’t compare our wives to other women. It does us no good to compare our wives to 20 year 0% body fat cheerleaders. We need to stop looking at this pictures, or phones, or other women at all, and love our wives for who they are and what Christ sees in them.

So go home hug your wives and really tell them how much they mean to you and how much you love them.
