BOM:
When I think of our nation’s military history it gives me chills. We enjoy freedoms today because of the sacrifices made by prior generations. Today is June 5…the day before D-day. 73 years ago, thousands of American men were spending their time on this day preparing to storm the beaches of Normandy tomorrow morning. They were securing their gear, thinking of their loved ones, homesick, scared, confused and they probably all had knots in their stomachs. Then, on June 6th, those same men swallowed down their fear and performed flawlessly while securing the beach. It’s estimated that 2,500 American’s lost their lives that day fighting for freedom. Let’s not forget them or the sacrifice they made so that we may have a brighter future.

Moleskin:

BOM: As described in the book of 1 Samuel, David did not take the advice of his peers which was to seek revenge, retaliate, and kill Saul. Although he had ample opportunity, David was wise enough to call on God for the strength and wisdom for self-control.  People will attack us and hurt us with words and actions.  As much as we really want to, don’t take the low road.  Be like David and call on God.  Don’t let someone else’s sins and mistakes cause you to be less of a man.  David was an Old Testament HIM that we could learn from.

Moleskin:  Friends don’t let their friends skip leg day.  The Men of the JUCO burned some goo this morning and should be feeling a little wobbly for a while.  The energy and effort was good this morning.  Way to go, HIM’s!
