That Skunk Was Ready For Us

THE SCENE: Kinda humid
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
SSH x 45. You can’t get anything past Catgut; he knew what was up.

15 Baby Arm Circles + 15 Overhead Claps + 15 Reverse Arm Circles

Windmills

A lap and a half

THA-THANG:
CMUs felt abandoned after Tuesday’s CMU-free workout, so we gave them some love.

45 reps of anything Q could think of, followed by a little run, 2 burpees, and a Bernie back. Lots of sweating.

Mini-mosey to The Cloud, where we did 3 rounds of Box Baby Boxes, 15 reps each. Once again, Catgut knew what it all added up to.

Our unwelcome guest Jack Webb showed up again today.

3 rounds of 45 second wall sits. 15 PAX, 3 rounds…it all just kind of fell into place today. Must’ve been destiny.

We were headed to Cardiac when Eagle Eye Hands spotted our little striped friend waiting to ruin our week. Skunks do not keep us from Cardiac. We took a more scenic route. Up Cardiac just one time, and back to the AO.

MARY:
Who has time for Mary when Jack Webb visits?
COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
15 men and one uppity skunk.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
For a man turning a year older, an excerpt from Wendell Berry: “Every day you have less reason not to give yourself away.”

Deep thanks to all the men of F3 for Qing us and for showing up every morning. What a great gift.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Maybe only young guys should take birthday Qs.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.”

‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭4:8‬ ‭ESV‬‬

http://bible.com/59/1ti.4.8.esv

We are saved by grace, but we should be just as (or more) intentional towards growing in Godliness as we are towards growing in physical fitness. This doesn’t mean start fartsacking more often. It means learn from how you are able to focus on physical fitness, to stop fartsacking on your relationship with God.

Listening to God.
In busy lives, we forget to listen.
Even in reading bible or in prayer, we forget to listen.
Take time to pause, to listen, to hear what God is telling you.
Reflect on the bible verses we read. What is God telling you?
Reflect on songs heard and sermons at church. What is God telling you?
Take time to reflect in car. What is God telling you? Listen
Take a walk, a break with God. What is God telling you? Listen

Pinto brought a good word with all the fast and furious things around us, there is one thing that remains constant and that is Christ. Even though the horrible fires have happened up in Sevier County we know that he is sovereign and in control.

Moleskin-
The PAX put in some good work today and we were sweating like it was summer. Timberlake made it back from Louisiana and Goose was getting in a workout before his 5th date! Good to see Smallmouth back out and you wouldn’t want to run into him in a dark alley, he is a straight up beast!
-Prayers for Pinto’s family and their cabin up in Gatlinburg
