Authenticity is something we as men need to strive for daily, weekly, always. In the effort to be men of God, distilling through the influences of the world and consciously deciding to deal head on with our Jesters is of the utmost importance. Today’s beatdown was designed to remind us that being authentic men requires that we do hard work that we really don’t want to do, repetitively, with periods of rest and reflection, then on to more work. Without this sacrifice of work and effort, we will not be able to shake free of the habits, hurts, or hang-ups that are holding back our Acceleration.
In my own personal journey into authenticity through sobriety, I have encountered the brutal reality that I have largely lived an inauthentic life. I am prone to being the big show, the center of attention, all façade and not much follow through. I have reached a point of exhaustion with keeping up this outward-facing, surface lifestyle. Difficult as it is, I have committed myself to a renewed mantra that is found in the F3 Lexicon – EQV. It stands for Esse Quam Videri, Latin for “to be and not to seem.” The first time I encountered this phrase, I was intrigued. Now it rocks me to the core. I am a different man because of this notion.
We are created in the image of God. It is our responsibility to honor Him as we endeavor to do as Shakespeare said “to thine own self be true.” While he was not by most accounts a man of God, we are, and we can still take this advice to heart. As long as we are framing our true selves through the lens of the Lord and seeking live an authentic life rooted in the strength of the Father, Son and Spirit, we can accomplish truly great things.
I am beyond grateful to be in the presence of such inspiration and hard working HIM. Thank you for the pleasure of leading.
