Proverbs 24
1 Judge impartially
To show partiality in judging is not good’ (v.23b). For those who judge justly, ‘rich blessing will come upon them’ (v.25).
2 Speak honestly
An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips’ (v.26). Sometimes it is hard to speak the truth in love, but we need to be honest with one another. The best answer you can give to any question asked is an honest one!
3 Stay loyal
Don’t talk about your neighbours behind their backs – no slander or gossip, please’ (v.28, MSG). Anyone can stay true to your face but it is the people who stay true behind your back that really count.
4 Show restraint
The temptation to pay back those who have done us harm is very great. However, the writer of Proverbs warns against taking revenge: ‘Do not say, “I’ll do to them as they have done to me; I’ll pay them back for what they did”’ (v.29).
5 Work hard
The book of Proverbs often warns against laziness. ‘A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest – and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man’ (vv.33–34).

One Large Loop

It was like 70° out
We headed out of the park toward Sam’s at a nice pace. Made a large loop down  Middlebrook and back to park from the back side. We stopped 6 or 7 times for 10 push-ups and 10 sit-ups.
Back at the Y we went up Lover’s twice for more PT. Got like 5.5 miles.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Growing up playing sports, I was a pretty good athlete. Having not exercised a lot since college, I still thought F3 would be pretty easy.  Was I wrong.  F3 definitely keeps you humble but God wants us to be humble.  In humility we are reminded to value others above ourselves.

Philippians 2: 3-8
MOLESKIN:
This being my VQ, it kept me humble because it can be a challenge to lead the workout and do the actual workout. Overall though, it was a good experience.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This week a friend of mine from high school hit rock bottom. He was truly broken in all sense of the word. He is suffering from drug addiction and he is being treated at a facility as we speak. It is when we are broken that we can truly see the overwhelming love of God. We ignore or forget his gift when things are going our way and we “have no need” for God. But when your broken and then made new, you can truly appreciate Gods gift to us. Example of a light stick, breaking and then glowing.
MOLESKIN:

it was hot wearing a suit

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Abacus gave a Q at the Equalizer a few weeks ago talking about work life balance and family and it really spoke to me.  It made me think of a song:

Enjoy yourself it’s later than you think
Enjoy yourself while you’re still in the pink
The years go by quicker than a wink
Enjoy yourself
Enjoy yourself it’s later than you think

In my 20’s when I heard this song, I thought it meant have a great time – got out to clubs, restaurants, gigs – enjoy yourself externally.  Now I think it also means enjoy your body – internalize it.  Someone once said “Your body is the greatest tool you’ll ever own”, I’m starting to understand that.  In the 6 months I’ve been coming to F3 I’ve found it’s a great way both to enjoy myself but also support enjoyment at other times.  I can play harder with my kids – go on longer hikes & bike rides and do more of that boy stuff with them than I could before.

My wish for you all is that you take the words of the song to heart and Enjoy Yourselves.  Use F3 because running around with sweaty men is enjoyable and also because in making the commitment to being fit/healthy you’ll be able to get the most out of your body and get the most out of all of your life.

It’s later than you think.

MOLESKIN:
I think everyone completed the squat lap today, so fill in your 100 squats on the Monthly challenge.
