WORD
Things falling apart is a kind of testing and also a kind of healing.

Tweet-E kept wishing he’d not eaten those three pancakes at I-Hop last night, and I think Tank ripped through the workout and left his Kettlebell in a hasty retreat…so now there is an extra one in the bunch for next week.  Podunk and Swirly had a great time at their first attempt at the Ropes & Bells…looking forward to seeing them out next week with I-Beam on Q!

BOM:
Trust in God to save us not Man

Eph 2:8
For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9not by works, so that no one can boast. 10For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

We make the difference, God planned for us to do his work NOT for us to depend on someone else to do it.

WORD
Kids & Prayers
Took some time yesterday to talk though what bedtime prayers really were about with the kids…brought to mind to share with the PAX:  Take time to really understand what you’re doing rather than just rushing through something you do every day from memory.  Take time and be introspective.
