CIRCLE OF TRUST
While this may not be my last Q, I wanted to express to you my observations about JUCO.
“Romans 12:10 ESV
Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.”
“1 Peter 2:17 ESV
Honor everyone. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the emperor.”
F3 is not about you. It’s not what you can get out of it. If a workout is the only reason you’re here then you are missing out on the best blessing you can get at 5:30AM. Workout is great, but it’s so much more than that…you guys mean so much to me. Accountability, friendship, loyalty. I encourage you to outdo one another in showing honor. I encourage you to love the brotherhood. Commit to the brotherhood, and grow the brotherhood.

THE THANG:
Ran around the building and came back to the school entrance cover. About 25 cards w various exercises were space out in a big circle. We started on a different card and went around the circle doing 10 of each. After round 1 we ran around the building and started round 2. We flipped the cards to find new exercises to do. Same thing again. 10 of each then ran around the building. Final round was 5 each of whichever side you preferred then pick up the card for clean up. Then mosey back to flag. We listened to Toby Keith’s greatest hits the whole time. I forgot to bring Red Solo cups for a prop. Next time I’m gonna do this.

COT:
Toby Keith died last week of stomach cancer. He had become one of my favorites over the past 20 years or so. He was big, fun, and talented. He loved America and Soldiers. Go listen to the greatest hits, he was fun. He will be missed.

I was moved by the way his daughter responded to his death. She of course recognized his talent and that they would miss him badly. More importantly she was thankful to have a dad that was always there and present for her and she took comfort in knowing that because of his faith he is now with Jesus.

So with this in mind I asked what will your legacy be? Will your legacy of a father, husband, son, or friend be appreciated or regrettable? Do you leave a legacy of faith in Jesus for others to follow? Death appears to be all around us and it’s coming for us all. What will people say about you? What are the most important things?
