CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
It’s hard to believe God is there in the middle of the valley. It’s easier to believe it when I am on the mountain top. But the truth is that God is with us on the mountain top and in the valley. Even though I don’t feel or see or experience God walking with me – it doesn’t mean He isn’t there. I have to hold fast to that anchor when I get overwhelmed. That’s my challenge to myself and to you: Believe He is there even if it seems that He isn’t.

THA-THANG:
Mosey towards the Big Ball and up the stairs towards pedestrian bridge.  Bear crawl across pedestrian bridge, each time a PAX stops to rest results in penalty of 5 prisoner squats at the end of the bridge.  Q took the six and no one was doing squats, so the entire group did 10 prisoner squats on four count in cadence.  Continue mosey to Market Square.  PAX assemble at the stage end of the square in front of the TVA building.

Routine is a variation on the Dirty Mac Deuce.  Four rounds of three exercises, 20 reps each, once a round is completed PAX take a lap around Market Square and move on to next set.  Exercises as follows:

  • Round 1: Derkins, lunges, superman swims
  • Round 2: Incline merkins, jump squats, Edward scissorlegs
  • Round 3: Wide merkins, calf raises, side crunches
  • Round 4: Dips, pistol squats, American hammers

Jack rabbits repeat round 1 after finishing while waiting on the 6.  Recover and 10 count.  Begin mosey back to start point for Mary.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

One of the things I love about F3 is that when we come out here we are not here to compete with one another. We are not here to prove ourselves but to encourage one another.

There is a book by Keller I have listed to a few times called the freedom of self forgetfulness based on the 1 Corinthians 3. “So let no boast in, for all things are yours”

Often I find myself comparing my performance in all areas of life. My ego wants me to be seen as something great

It is not about what others think and not even about what I think but what the lord thinks.

Re-live the gospel ever day.

Christ’s perfect performance on the cross is the one that matters.

He died on the cross so that we don’t have to meet some standard set by others or even ourselves.

I don’t care what you think,I don’t care what I think, only with the Lord thinks
