What a great lesson this morning

You know what guys?
There is something that happens when a bunch of guys come together and truly allow themselves to trust those around them and share something about themselves that they are not proud of. This sharing not only effects the man who shares it but also speaks to the guy who could not share but wished he could. This sharing also brings out others who have already experienced the same thing and they share what they did about it. And that is whether it worked or not.
It is not easy for men to admit there weakness, faults or sins. I know this... when men are allowed to share in a safe place without fear of judgement or ridicual great things happen. Today we talked about being intentional and we had some great things shared. We learned that we need to concentrate on a few things and do them well instead of being a YES man and trying to do everything and not doing the job as well as we should. We learned that scheduling our goals and then sticking with that schedule because we assigned priorities to our goals help very much.
Probably the biggest thing is this. We all have been given a purpose and the gifts to achieve that purpose. The key is this. Take the time to communicate with God to identify what this purpose is and then concentrating on fulfilling that purpose with perfection.
Today, tell yourself that you want to lead a purpose driven life and that you want to identify your reason that God has you were you are. Once that is done commit to doing all that you can to achieve that purpose and start that path. Don't expect to complete this by Monday, take your time and enjoy this journey. Your connection with God and yourself will be one that you never expected or will ever forget.
Blessings to all of you and don't forget.
Pray, be still, listen and pray again.

Have a great weekend.
