COT: Essentially the whole workout was a BOM, but the final note to reflect on is that it is finished, but the story has not ended. Matthew 28:5-6 And the angel sed to the women, “Do not be afraid: for I know that you are looking for Jesus who has been crucified. He is not here, for He has risen, just as He said. Come [and], see the place where he was lying.”

COT:
Chapter 6 of Kent Evans’ book The Manhood Journey is about serving others. Kent talks about three reasons we serve: Duty, Devotion, and Delight. While serving out of duty and devotion is good, we should strive to serve out of delight. We should take joy in using our gifts to serve others as God’s Word commands.
