COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Studies have shown that men of 30-50 years old are able to push their bodies further and endure over greater distance that those age 29 and younger. That doesn’t mean we’re tougher or stronger, we just know where the wall is for our bodies and know we are no where near done yet. It also means we have been here, done that and know what to do and what not to do. Take that ability and apply it to you daily life. You know what works and what doesn’t. You know shouting, cursing, and slamming your head into the day does not get the job done. Be consistent and think before you act.

    F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
    WARM-O-RAMA:
    LBAC
  • Michael Phelps
  • Imperial Squat Walkers
  • Goofballs
    THA-THANG:
    We moseyed over to the front opposite side of the parking lot to get under a light so we could play a dice game.  Using 3 dice, Orange determined the exercise and Green x Red determined reps.  We made it thru nearly 3 rounds of rolls, taking turns.  Exercises were:
  • 1.  Sprints
  • 2. Lt. Dans
  • 3. SSH (4-count, IC)
  • 4. Merkins
  • 5. Dips
  • 6. Burpees

While we never had anyone roll a combination that was over 25 reps, the majority of rolls for exercise were 2s.  Everyone was over the Lt. Dans by the end and I was accused of bringing loaded dice.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Even Now faith.  From the story of Lazarus, the disciples were afraid of returning to Judea due to threat of stoning.  Once Jesus explained to them that Lazarus was dead, Thomas said he would go that he would die with him.  They still didn’t get it.  Once they arrived, Martha told Jesus that if he had been there, Lazarus would not have died, but EVEN NOW I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you.  Then Jesus told her, “Your brother will rise again.”  We should have the faith of Martha who believed that Jesus could conquer death instead of being like the disciples and either fearing death or not believing in Jesus’s power.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Like in the deal breaker togetherness is important.  We are there to carry, encourage, and support one another in life.  John 15:13 says, “Greater love has no on than this, than to lay’s one life for his friends.”

This is exemplified by Major Bruce Crandall in Ia Drang Valley during Vietnam.  Major Crandall  and his choppers doubled their burden air lifting troops into battle, but also lifted the dead and wounded from the battle scene when medevac choppers refused to fly into conflict.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’ve been reading the book of James lately and was thinking about the first verse.

1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,

To the twelve tribes scattered among the nations:

Greetings.

James was the half-brother of Christ. Growing up together, knowing that Jesus was the Son of God, in my mind would have caused some sibling rivalry. But James grew up to not only follow Christ but to call himself a servant or bond-servant or slave of Christ. He willingly devoted his life, even unto death, to follow and serve his half-brother. How many of us can say we would willingly follow and serve our siblings? James is an example to us all for putting ourselves to the side and serving others. How can we take this servant attitude out into the world and serve not only our families but our friends, co-workers, or strangers on the street? We all need to be willing to step up and be servant leaders and set the example for our own children.
