CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Men, protecting your wife and children–and others -is not a tiny little part of your Christianidentity. That’s your job title, your burden, yourcalling. That’s on your business card: protector of those God has given me. That’s who you are, men (see Eph. 5:22-33; 1 Cor. 16:13).
You may never have been told this. You may never have been trained in this. You may have no idea in yourself how to do this. You may fear this. You may think you are insufficient for this. It matters not. All that matters is who God has made you to be and
called you to be. You are weak, yes, but God makes you strong. His grace is sufficient and proven in your weakness (2 Cor. 12:9). Your life, therefore, is not about you lying on the ground, moaning about how weak you are, celebrating your failure, and lashing out at anyone who would charge you to get
up off the ground. Your life is about asking God to make you stronger, and then you going out and living in that strength.
Divine grace makes you protect women, children, and the endangered, men. Go and do it. FIGHT for your loved ones. STAND for God’s truth. Don’t accept defeat. Claim the grace of God in Christ, repent when you fail as we all do, and fight still more. Fight, and then fight again, and then after that keep on fighting.
NEVER STOP

MOLESKIN:
We learned that some of the guys at the equalizer have some pretty good moves.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I was reading a book recently called Unoffendable by Brant Hansen. The premise of the book if that we can choose to be unoffendable. We can choose to not take offense.

Offense comes from anger or resentment we feel when there’s been a violation of our natural right to something. The classic example that comes to mind is driving. If you view yourself as having a natural right to go where you want to go, as fast as you want to go, it’s going to be tough getting anywhere. We’ve probably all experienced this ourselves in many areas of life.

Giving up our natural right denies ourself and points us toward others. It allows us to not get angry when things happen to us. It allows us to forgive others.

We can choose to be unoffendable.

We should choose to be unoffendable.

We are called to forgive, not be angry.

Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense.

— Prov 19:11

 

 

Better Late Than Never Egg Hunt + Prey-Predator Game

THE SCENE: Mid 50’s and cloudy.
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

  • Seal Claps x 10.
  • SSH x 11.

  • Shoulder taps x 10.

Mosey to the new building.

We did some laps around the new building stopping at each entrance. The exercises at each entrance were:

  • 10 Heels to Heaven.
  • 15 Derkins / 30 Toe Merkins.
  • 20 Box Jumps / 20 Dips.
  • 20 BBS.

Egg Hunt.

We divided ourselves in 2 teams, we collected as many eggs as we could and we gave the eggs that we collected to the other team as a present :)…then the teams had to run around a loop (800 feet), crack open the eggs and do the exercise prescribed by the egg :). Team number 2 did a great job finishing all of the eggs in less than 10 mins…great work gents!!!

Prey-Predator Game.

Two Stop signs. Three predators and many preys. The objective was to carry as many eggs as possible from one stop sign to the other douching for the predators. If you get caught by a predator, you do 10 burpees, you become a predator and the predator becomes a prey. It was a really fun game, but there was not much time to do many rounds :'(.

MARY:
No time.

Then we got 3.5 seconds of stargazers before we did some Hello Dolly.  Too many clouds to see stars anyway.

Stone Jenga was played.  We held Al Gore while building a pile of rocks.  We got to 7 rocks before it fell so 10-7=3… 3 burpees.  Well done.  Mosey back to return our rocks, do more dips, bear crawl across the street and back, 10 Dirkens, Duck walk to curb and 20 calf raises.

Psalm 18:  I love you, Oh Lord, My Strength

Looked at making sure the Lord is our strength, our deliverer and our Rock.   David, leading the victorious army didn’t find his strength in his self but from the Lord.  Make sure Jesus is the foundation of your strength.

Be praying for our F3 brothers we miss due to injury.  Especially Survivor, Spotter, 5k, Gump and others.
