CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
It’s extremely easy to focus on the negatives of each day rather than seeing the positive. Our minds tend to gravitate to find all the things going wrong, and not what’s going right.

2 Corinthians 4:17-18        For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.

God woke us all up this morning because His plan for us isn’t finished yet. Make the best of your day, and pay attention to what IS right, and what you DO have.

This is the day that the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Snag a Travelling Companion and continue on around toward the duck pond.
Stop at the parking lot just shy of the pond for OYO:
30 Overhead CMU Pulls
30 Merky-Derky (audibled to 20…)
30 Curls
Flutters for the six
Merky-Derky: Hands on CMU – one merkin. Bear crawl forward to feet on CMU – one derkin. Crawl bear to starting position. That’s one (sadistic count) or 2 (wussy count). We went with the wussy count and still audibled to 20. Those suck!
Resume traveling, past the buildings and up the hill. Gather for more OYO:
30 CMU Squats
30 4-count Mtn Climbers
30 more Curls
Flutters for the six

At this point, YHC realized there was no way we were gonna make it all the way across the street to that big set of stairs… Almost got the Travelling Companions off campus, but not quite. Turn around and head back, stop at the little set of stairs for Dora:
300 Calf Raises, 200 LBCs, 100 8-count Body Builders, running partner carries one CMU up the stairs, runs back down, carries other CMU up, then carries both down and tags partner.

Only a couple of pairs even made it to the body builders before we ran out of time.
Head back to return Companions to their home, then book it to the AO. Arrived 2 minutes late (sorry guys).

MARY:
None due to poor time management by the Q.

13 this fine Wednesday, including one FNG – Welcome Teller (Daniel Tanner)!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’ve mentioned this one before, but I need reminding of it myself pretty often: Eph. 5:25 – Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. Not just his ultimate sacrifice on the cross, but daily, in every action. Extreme patience with his mule-headed disciples. Gathering the sick and lame to himself, even when he had just walked miles from another town or crossed the the sea all night under a raging storm in a rickety little boat. That’s giving yourself. How will you follow that example today?
MOLESKIN:
Our Companions really slowed down travel… We can get to the Coupons or we can get to the stairs across the street, but definitely not both! Even without getting there, it still felt like a lot more running than I intended. PAX killed it anyway though with no [audible] cussing…
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Don’t forget 3rd F on Saturday morning! Check GroupMe for the deets…
