CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’ve been listening to the audio Bible lately.  I encouraged the PAX to give it a try.   Normally when I read I only get through 1-2 chapters at a time, but with the audio version I can easily listen to entire books in one setting.   It’s helpful to gain the perspective of hearing it all at one time so that everything is in context.

17 HIM’s this morning including 1 FNG.  Welcome Bologna!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We are going to have times in our lives when we feel like hitting the reset button.  Times when we need to stop, take stock of our current situation, and then find the direction and motivation to move forward.

Galatians 6:9-10  So lets’ not get tired of doing what is good.  At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.  Therefore, whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone – especially to those in the family of faith.

MOLESKIN:
What a great way to start my 44th year on the Big Ball.  The PAX showed up ready to burn some goo; mumble chatter was high and the effort was amazing.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Often we end up in places we may not like. It is best to accept personal responsibility and try to alter the future with introspection and change within. I encourage you all to find one or two things to be better at each week. If you were to do that diligently, I imagine you would be far happier at the end of the year than not. Personally, I am a bit distant with friends and family. I have been trying to be more open and communicative with them.

Peace of Cake

THE SCENE: 50 degrees and clear sky.  Beautiful morning.

Headed up Heart Attack Hill!  Stopped 2/3 the way up for a breather and some CDD’s. Finished out the ascent.  Took in the view and some much needed oxygen.  Headed back down.  Explored steps behind shops a few times, moseyed back to campus.  Hit the railing and tables for a few inverted rows and step-ups/dips.  Had time for more mosey; circled the physical plant building and headed back to Start.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Peace is an inheritance from God.  It is not worldly.  It is not something we create or need to search for.  It has already been given to us; we just need to choose to accept it.  Philippians 4: 6-7  Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything.  Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.  Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand.  His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
MOLESKIN:
Just the two of us this morning, but the F3 spirit was with us.  Racked up 2.6 miles and enjoyed the inaugural 300 FT ascent up Heart Attack Hill.  Great fellowship.
