Weight Wednesday

AO: the-farm
Q: Choir Boy
PAX: Choir Boy, Aladdin
FNGs: None
COUNT: 2
WARMUP: Aladdin needed to leave a few minutes early, so we did some stretching and 50 SSHs on a 4 count and got busy.

THE THANG: One person carries two 25-lbs weight plates around the loop while the other does 10 merkins.  When the merkins are done, the person runs and catches the other.  Once caught, each person takes a weight plate and does 10 curls, 10 overhead presses, 10 tricep extensions, and 10 rows.  Switch roles and repeat around the loop until the loop is completed. If the catch occurs near a bench, stop and do 25 dips.

MARY: Had time to run a lap around the loop

ANNOUNCEMENTS: No time because Aladdin had to leave.

COT: You can’t have a circle of one, so I walked another lap around the loop to fill up the last five minutes or so and prayed for the growth and success of our AO and all of the current PAX and those who have yet to find their way to the Farm.

I Cor 3:6-7:

I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. 7 So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.

Two things to unpack with with verse. First, we are called to plant and water, but its God that gives the growth… in the day to day things we do, trust God to give the increase and bless our efforts. Secondly, God is in control. There are things we can and should do and say in this life, but so much of our lives are completely out of our control. It’s humbling to realize how much this is.
Encouragement is to plant and water, then pray and trust for God to give the growth in our work, families, relationships, etc…
