Introduction
Warm-O-Rama
Road Runner led us in WoR today. I reached out to him and asked if he could help me, kinda like a Co-Q. He didn’t hesitate and jumped right in. He did exceptionally well counting IC right out of the gate. The PAX rallied around HIM and it was very cool to witness and be a part of.
Part of our WoR was moving the cars (twice) for the City of Naperville. The snow was accumulating quick and we wanted to do what we say, be leaders in our community. I thought of the first move and Webelos suggested the second. Iron sharpens iron.
Circle of Trust
CoT’s come easy to me. It’s a core principle and I don’t take it lightly. They’re easy because 50/52 weeks I’m either reading, listening or attending something that will help my personal growth. I consider myself a “lifelong” learner. John Maxwell suggests that in order for the lessons to stick even more, share them with others. I’m always excited to share something I learned that impacted me hoping it does the same for someone else, plus selfishly I get a tad bit better myself. Like Rico’ say’s, “GIVE IT AWAY.”
Today I went completely off script because being vulnerable was the CoT. Jas and I got in a bad fight yesterday and I was a complete dick. Not something I’m proud of. You know the kind of fight that scares the kids. If you don’t know, good for you. Our Church started a small group titled 40MPH which mentors married or engaged couples under 40. I saw CVS there Monday night. Everythings been moving and grooving however the devil knocked and we opened. Yesterday was a reminder I must stay vigilant and alert. Wise enough to recognize the situation to understand what’s happening.
For my bachelors, don’t rush it take your time looking for a partner cause this married stuff is HARD work. For my married guys, don’t think you’re the only one with a fire in the kitchen. Let’s learn and repent, walking away from sin.
Prayers for Chris – Overthrow and The Persian Kitten’s mother, Clearcoat and Lil Primer who just arrived (praise God), Laimbeer and Fam and all those prayers left unspoken.
Naked Man Moleskin
I promised the PAX a special guest leading the WoR yet I don’t think they knew what I had planned. A1 aka Mr. Sparrow joined his first RC in combat boots and wearing all camo. Humpty Dumpy stayed with Sam Walton and I the entire time, also his first RC. We chopped it up a bit and I think we have a BDRC regular, we’ll see if Glen identifies talent as I do.
Aladdin signing off…
See you @ the TOP!
