CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Honor God in all you do every day, Learn something, Have fun. That is what I told my kids as a coach when they were younger. Here is something further: Fear the Lord – Beginning of Wisdom but don’t be afraid or worry about this world; Have Faith – Rejoice and give praise in all circumstances; Love God with all your heart, soul and mind and Love your neighbor as yourself. That is what I see all the time in F3.
MOLESKIN:
Prayers for Adoption process being completed, for Health Issues, for Parenting Mercies and Praise for being able to get out of bed each day.
Putting yourself on the line for your F3 Brothers is a great experience. But it is just a start and it has to translate to the rest of your life. It’s too easy to get either complacent or comfortable. I have to say I’m 54 and got lost in my every day struggle. Get yourself out of your personal divot. Make a difference. You will get more back than you put in to it.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Captain O will be guest AOQ for a bit while Chucky is off gallivanting. See mumble chatter but there are upcoming opportunities for Sat at Mothership for 2.0’s and Rucktober Fest coming up.
