CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Living in God’s presence:  What we consider sin is not really sin but the symptoms of our sinful state. The essence of sin is the willful turning away from God.  And the opposite of this is repentance, or turning back to Him.  Left to our own devices we tend to  pull away but the Spirit draws us back . God is always calling us to Him and we have the gift of His presence and the option to turn away.

Burpee Baseball – JUCO July 23, 2018

THE SCENE: Juco parking lot,  Wanted to do on actual baseball diamond on campus but torrential rains yesterday made it a swamp.  So cement baseball here we come!  75 degrees – very humid – slight fog

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
Did two burpees of each of the 20 different made up burpees that are written on the old softballs with sharpies.  Basically it combines the exercises we know and love with a Burpee.  What’s written on the ball is just the name of the exercise to combine with a burpee.  Here are the types:

  1. Iron Mike
  2. Frog   (out and back with legs while in plank)
  3. Big Boy
  4. Squat Jump
  5. Release Merkin
  6. Side Straddle Hop
  7. Double Merkin
  8. Lunge
  9. Imperial Walker
  10. Cross Mountain Climber

THA-THANG:

  • Teams: Split group into two teams (doesn’t matter how many players each hopefully will be even number of players)
  • Equipment: 22 Balls with burpee type written on it (one or two words).  5 hard balls, 17 softballs.
  • Game Play: All players remain in their teams dug-out while two players come up to the field for a “Play at bat”. One player from the “At bat” team comes up to race against one player from the “outfield” team.  The at bat player throws the ball as hard as he can and tries to get around the bases back to home before the “outfield” player can retrieve the ball and bring it back to home plate.   The player to make it back to home first gets the thrown ball for his team (and thus the points).
  • Object of the game:  The team with the most points wins.  Two points for softballs and five points for hardballs.
  • Burpees: When a player at bat picks a ball he announces it to everyone what type of burpee is written on the ball.  When that player rounds a base he has to do two burpees of that type.   When the outfield player reaches the ball he has to do five burpees of that type before he starts running for home.  While the two players are running and retrieving the ball, their respective teams have to do the same burpees as their player who is running the play.  So the outfield team does five when their player does five and the at bat team does two burpees in sync with their player as he rounds the base.
  • Infield / Outfield Switch:  The at bat team has three throws before switching to being an outfield team.
  • Hardballs:  If the at bat player picks a hardball – then all the reps are doubled.  Therefore, four burpees per base and ten burpees for retrieving (the teams in the dugouts also have to do the rep increase).
  • Game End / Lightning Round: If all 22 balls are thrown before 30 minutes is up, then the lightning round commences.  The balls are totaled (2 points per softball and 5 points per hardball). The team with the most points wins. All balls are put back in the pot. The lightning round is the same as before except the burpee repetitions is one per base and zero for the retriever.

Struggling with loving abusive family members sucks big !@#$.  Prayers requested for living a lifestyle of forgiveness and not just a “I’ll just forgive you once” mentality.  Jesus calls us and shows us to a higher calling that we can only “achieve” with the help & strength of the Holy Spirit! Praise God for the helper!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

We should strive to be our best everyday whether it’s being the best husband, father, son, brother, co-worker, etc. I don’t feel like I’m being my best every day. I struggle to consistently live up to my potential. The good news is every day we have a chance to be our best.

Good and bad things happen every day.  On July 20th, the following things happened:

  • 1921 Congresswoman Alice Mary Robertson becomes the first woman to preside over the floor of US House of Representatives
  • 1944 Death March of 1,200 Jews from Lipcani Moldavia begins
  • 1967 Race riots in Memphis, Tennessee
  • 1969 1st Moon Landing: Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin step out from Apollo spacecraft 11,530 million watch live global broadcast
  • 1976 Hank Aaron hits 755th and last home run off Angels Dick Drago
  • 1995 Shaquem Griffin, American one-handed NFL player (Seahawks), was born (very inspirational story – look him up!)

One of my favorite quotes is:

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” ― Edmund Burke

Let’s be good men. Let’s serve others. Let’s love everyone. Let’s strive to be better each and every day.

Iron Sharpens Iron – Let’s sharpen each other and make us better every day!

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Over the weekend I was stung by a wasp that had built it’s nest under a table that I had already moved several times that day. After further inspection of my deck I found an additional 4 nests in various places very close to where my family and I regularly hang out. It was a reminder that danger is always lurking just beneath the surface, therefore, it’s important to always be on guard.

John 10:7-10 NASB

So Jesus said to them again, “Truly, truly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.
