99 repetitions of the following exercises:

BOM
P-nut reflected on the origin of Labor Day and discussed that when it comes to doing the work of the Lord- our work is never done.  We can find rest, peace and comfort in Jesus, however.  Matthew 11:28
P-nut then prayed us out- including a prayer request for our marriages.

MOLESKIN
P-nut was a little anxious about attendance on this Labor Day (lots of temptation to fartsack), but was pleasantly surprised to see all the headlights descending upon the AO.  Great effort by all the PAX.

BOM
Yes, in a tennis match love means “nothing”—–15-love, 30-love, 40-love. But to a Christian and a HIM (High Impact Man) love is everything. Jesus commands us to love one another. Sometimes this is not easy to love others who are not like us, don’t treat us well, or don’t believe the same as we do. Matthew 22:37 Jesus was asked which commandment was the greatest. He replied “love the Lord your God with all your heart, your soul, and your mind. And the second is like it, love your neighbor as yourself”. How do we love God with all our heart? Obey His commands, spend time in His word, spend time meditating and in prayer. How do we love our neighbor? Look for opportunities to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Just for today make the decision to be less selfish and more Christ-like—–encourage others, engage with those around you and help them however you can. Serve others, love on your wife and kids, love on your parents and friends—-love them well!!!!

Be sure to include forgiveness of yourself.  As driven men, we often regret not achieving things or making poor decisions.  We may be quick to forgive others, but often we don’t forgive ourselves.  Work on being cognizant of forgiving yourself this week.
