Circle of Trust
YHC has noticed a trend lately of waking up before the alarm. It’s been encouraging as he thinks about the progress he’s made to re-train his body, and his mind, to see that extended to his sleep patterns.
In the same way, YHC has been working on re-training his mind especially concerning the role of exercise. Instead of using it to punish himself (his modus operandi), he’s been working on encouraging himself and looking at exercise as a reward. Reminding him of the good that it represents and its invitation into who God created him to be.
May each of these men be encouraged in the same way following our morning of hard work. Don’t punish yourselves!
Great convo followed about the tension between affection & tough love.
Prayers for Spooner in family and with church.
Prayers for Drafty, M, and baby draft.
Prayers for Yak and his shoulder.
Prayers of encouragement for us men as we carry the mantle of leadership in the home, at work, and in our society.
Naked Man Moleskin
There was some clunkiness with the flow, especially as YHC’s alligator walks created a bottleneck.
Great work by all the men out there. They made it seem easier than it was.
Those EMOM’s, they’re so hot right now 🤙
