COT
Don’t Lose Heart
2 Corinthians 4:16-18

(ESV) “So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.”

(CSB) “Therefore we do not give up.  Even though our outer person is being destroyed, our inner person is being renewed day by day. For our momentary light affliction  is producing for us an absolutely incomparable eternal weight of glory. So we do not focus on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.”

(MSG) “So we’re not giving up. How could we! Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us. There’s far more here than meets the eye. The things we see now are here today, gone tomorrow. But the things we can’t see now will last forever.”

Matlock (Bill Maddox) was kind enough to share the Q this morning as he and Gene Steratore bought Dick Vitale’s breakfast at Denny’s this morning in preparation for next week’s Bracket Q. Don’t get caught not knowing what Lipscpmb’s mascot is!

Great having Unibráu (Nick Robinson)and the legendary Abacus back out with us.

7 Motivators, some stretching, and we moseyed. We’re all bulletproof until 2035, thank you junk science, and then halfway through getting our shoulders blasted, our buddy Bob led us in some paper/rock/scissors. Bob’s a real one.

My goal was to channel my inner Double Wide and do some sprinting but all too soon I realized it’s Cinco (Scott McGuire) who is uncatchable and P3 who you can’t even see, he runs so far ahead. We have some impressive sprinters among us.

We wandered over to the cloud and your Q’s personal policy is to do whatever Cat Gut (Mike Davis) says. So we went all the way to the Dark Webb. It’s a long journey. I actually thought the Dark Webb would make even Hot Tub (John Muller) be out of breath but I heard him talking about hot tubs, which makes me think we need to have a Q where we can only mumblechatter about what we’re named after.

Some Pavalon work and back to the AO for the Friday main event (cashing out of course) and we were all ready for the weekend.
