Super-lucky 13 under a full Halloween moon. Welcome FNG Airwolf!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Of all the holidays of the year, the most overcommercialized/ignored true meaning (by percentage anyway) has to be All Saints Day. Halloween (All Hallows Eve) has completely taken over to the point that many don’t even know about All Saints Day, which was created to celebrate and honor all those saints who didn’t have their own feast days. Take some time tomorrow personally or with your family to read up on a saint (not necessarily just those recognized by the Catholic Church), either ancient or modern-day, thank God for their example, and be inspired.
Hebrews 12:1-2
Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, 2 looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is seated at the right hand of the throne of God.
MOLESKIN:
I was amazed by the luck of this group, only pulling three out of ten “Trick” cards…

7 HIM faithful this morning… About 6 more than I expected given Fall Break plus conditions…
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.
Matthew 5:45

The rain today brought this verse to mind… We often hear this passage in the context of how good and bad things happen to both good and bad people. But the real context is in showing love to your enemies as well as your loved ones. Both sunshine and rain are physical manifestations of God’s grace, mercy, and provision. He gives these most basic blessings freely to all. Jesus is telling us that showing love to all regardless of their status is the most basic way to be children of our Father.

MOLESKIN:
Good ol turf fields smelled like wet rubber this morning… Glad plenty of guys showed up so I didn’t have to decide whether or not to do this by myself… That last lap was only 6 reps of each exercise per stop… Not sure if I have ever looked less favorably at just 6.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The word for today was about leaning on each other. Trusting each other and helping each other through difficult times. Not being timid about reaching out to someone when you are struggling. F3 is made for that. The work out this morning was based on a group and then separating out to yourself and coming back together as a group. Everyone worked a little bit harder when they were with the group than on their own. #isi
MOLESKIN:
It was great being back out at the dog pound. Great mumble chatter and we were able to avoid the rain for most of the work out.
