COT:
I’ve had a few times where I’ve been challenged with some unexpected changes that have directly affected my and my families lives.
It’s natural for most of us to immediately respond emotionally whether externally or internally, and to start thinking of defensive measures or responses. But..if were honest…how often do we smile and think of how great an opportunity it is for our spiritual life or that we’re blessed with another challenge?
While that may not be normal for anyone, think about where you turn for support? Do you vent or call a specific person that you think will give you the answer you want to hear? How long does it take you to come to the prayer?
If our faith is Luke-warm or we don’t have a solid foundation, is not difficult to be affected by small challenges/storms.
It’s all like prepping and practicing…when something sudden and unexpected happens, the natural instant is based on what thoughts and muscles you frequently have or use.
1 Corinthians 15:58
“Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.”
Following the Ruck, we discusses being vulnerable, sharing problems, and being open to seeking help. These topics tie into the QSOURCE OTB that we are experimenting with on Sunday mornings to potentially have a non exercise AO that focuses on teaching leadership principles. This is continuing on the Grow School Leadership training from the GTE, and the concept of “unlocking” men.
THE THANG: Stop at the guardrail for some dips, then head to the circle of 5 cones set up. 1 team clockwise, 1 team counterclockwise. at Each cone do 20 of the written ab exercise. When opposite teams intersect, “Rock”(squat), “Paper” (Burpee), “Scissor” (Star jump) to see who has to go back to the previous cone to do 10 before moving on. Move the marker with each lap. The other team will be moving it back. Game on. Repeat with Arm and then leg exercises. Might have worked better with more guys
MARY: Small campus tour, Core work, Calf raises, etc.

COT:
A look at Hebrews 4:13: We do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize, but who was tempted in every way like us but was without sin.
When we suffer, find someone to encourage, learn from it and don’t waste your suffering. Also, know that Jesus knows your pain and you are not alone. If that’s covid or physical pain or an injury, or disappointing progress or an emotional hurt, Jesus has been there and wants you to lean in to knowing Him more.
