THA-THANG:
End up at field 1. Partner up

game 1: shuffle passing: line up with two teammates facing each other 10’ apart. Side shuffle from the midline to the goal line and back while passing the ball back and forth. Then do bounce pass back and forth, then do crossovers passing and bouncing. You cannot hold the ball more than two seconds. If it’s dropped, you must do 5 burpees and resume where the ball hit the ground.

Game 2: circle of burpees. Two teams-one on each side of circle.  Bounce or throw the ball to someone across the circle from you and do a burpee. Hot potato fashion.

mosey to the outhouse: partner up. One dribbles the ball up the parking lot and does 5 burpees, other stays and does easy ups, incline merks, BBS, squats. Go till both partners finish all exercises

mosey back to field one.

Game 3: plank red rover. All plank around the circle on your teams side. Hit ball with your fist towards a gap in the circle on the other side. Players try to stop it from going through the circle while keeping plank/bear crawl. After hitting the ball do a merkin. If it gets past, whole team does 10 Merkins

Game 5: kick and fetch- player from each team kicks a ball for the other team to chase it. They sprint it down and mosey to other side with it. Everyone cycles through.

game 6 was goalie kicks. Teams have each player kick against a goalie. If blocked or missed, 10 burpees. If it goes in the goalies team does 5 burpees. (We missed a lot)

    • The Spirit and the Flesh struggle:
      • Romans: 7:19 For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. 20 But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.
      • Galations 5:17 For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.
      • Numbers: 15:39It shall be a tassel for you to look at and remember all the commandments of the Lord, so as to do them and not follow after your own heart and your own eyes, after which you played the harlot,

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
When Your Burden is Overwhelming (from utmost.org)
We must recognize the difference between burdens that are right for us to bear and burdens that are wrong. We should never bear the burdens of sin or doubt, but there are some burdens placed on us by God which He does not intend to lift off. God wants us to roll them back on Him— to literally “cast your burden,” which He has given you, “on the Lord….” If we set out to serve God and do His work but get out of touch with Him, the sense of responsibility we feel will be overwhelming and defeating. But if we will only roll back on God the burdens He has placed on us, He will take away that immense feeling of responsibility, replacing it with an awareness and understanding of Himself and His presence.

Many servants set out to serve God with great courage and with the right motives. But with no intimate fellowship with Jesus Christ, they are soon defeated. They do not know what to do with their burden, and it produces weariness in their lives. Others will see this and say, “What a sad end to something that had such a great beginning!”

“Cast your burden on the Lord….” You have been bearing it all, but you need to deliberately place one end on God’s shoulder. “…the government will be upon His shoulder” (Isaiah 9:6). Commit to God whatever burden He has placed on you. Don’t just cast it aside, but put it over onto Him and place yourself there with it. You will see that your burden is then lightened by the sense of companionship. But you should never try to separate yourself from your burden.
