Prayers for Blit’z family, especially his brother Nathan as he fights through some challenges in his marriage. Also for Dr. Claw’s friend (my cousin) Jackie and her newly adopted daughter, Tali. Tali is experiencing some health complications and they are currently at Nationwide Hospital in Columbus where Drs are trying to figure out what’s wrong. Praises to God for the blessing of this group!
The message for the day was “Burn the ships!”, which is a phrase that has helped me discern through several things in my life. It basically means get rid of the comfort zones that are holding you back from becoming who God is calling you to be. F3 is the perfect example of this. A warm bed at 5am is definitely a comfort zone but this group decides to climb out and fight through the gloom day after day. Thanks for the inspiration, men!
