COT:
“We are men of action. Lies do not become us.”
Who do we lie to? Others? Ourselves? Our God?

One way we lie to all three is by pretending we will live forever.
Think of your legacy. What do you picture? Money? A business? Heirlooms or possessions?
Which of these will survive 10 years? 20 years? 50? 100? Eternity?

Steve Jobs was one of the most influential people in the world while he lived and continues to be. However, within months of his death, Apple released a product he said they’d never make: the iPad Mini.

Do not lie to yourself and pretend that your material work will leave a legacy for your family. The only true legacy we can leave is by passing our values from the Word of God to others in our lives. The disciples we make will outlive us way longer than any work of our hands.

COT:
In American, we are generally very blessed. Many have more than enough to live, and we often are always in pursuit of more. Life is more than riches and success. Let me share a passage with you to consider.
Luke 12:15-21
“Then He said to them, “Beware, and be on your guard against every form of greed; for not even when one has an abundance does his life consist of his possessions.” And He told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man was very productive. And he began reasoning to himself, saying, ‘What shall I do, since I have no place to store my crops?’ Then he said, ‘This is what I will do: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry.” ’ But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?’ So is the man who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”

There is a lot that we can take from this passage, but I want to hone in on our pursuit of riches. This pursuit gets in the way of doing more important things like serving God and spending time with our families. True life isn’t about riches at all! Be on guard and don’t let greed rule your life.

Blocks and Form

Q: OBrother
PAX: Ocho, Erector, Comfort Zone, 3-Peat (Carlos Rodriguez), Tom Tom, Munge, Papa Lock

COUNT: 8

THE THANG: Ran to the concrete blocks, started with some Good Mornings

Went through exercises explained the form and answered questions followed by a 1 minute work , 15 sec rest, 1 minute work, 15 sec rest, 1 minutes work of each exercise. Exercises done were:

Goblet Squat
Curls
Lunge
Upright Row
Deadlift (with extra weight provided by Black Betty and John Henry to feel the form)

Run break for some Cardio between Row and Deadlift

COT: Discussion of Courtesy. I was a Boy Scout ages ago and I always wondered why the Scout Law listed that a Scout was both Courteous and Kind. Aren’t those the same thing. Now that I’m older, I see that Courtesy is how you treat someone and Kindness is why you treat someone that way. You can be courteous without being kind (see the Southernism ‘Bless your heart’) and kind without being courteous (Papalock used the example of the old man in the movie Gran Tarino). Courtesy helps people interact without misunderstandings. I used the example of the internet as an area where Courtesy can be lacking and it be source of contention and strife. Ocho pointed out that both Courtesy and kindness can be viewed as proceeding from viewing everyone as made in God’s image and worthy of that respect.
