CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I made the decision to stop drinking soda and sweet tea starting the beginning of this month. This one small change has made a huge impact. I’ve lost 8 pounds since the start of the month.

I still have plenty of other changes that I need to make but I’ve learned that making one change can have a huge impact. So ask yourself, what is the one change you need to make today. It doesn’t have to be a huge change to make a huge difference.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Shared a bit about the impact F3 has had on my life in regards to the bonds that are created between men when they are tested. When you put in the work, get the job done and go at it with a battle buddy. The relationship is stronger than a typical relationship. Trust your fellow HIMs, put in the daily work and be there for them. The bond is everything.

MOLESKIN:
Great spot for an AO. Mountain view at the end of the beatdown was pretty epic. Great group of guys. They even know how to mumble chatter already! Moses approved…All 12 put in the work and all 12 left with their first victory of the day.

Box Dodge

Every HIM has a puzzle box approximately 1 ft x 1 ft size.  You have to hold the box above your head like a waiter at a restaurant when they carry their trays.  You can switch hands when shoulder starts to get tired.  You try to knock each others box out of each others hand.  Grid with 9 guys was about 366 ft x 36ft (playing space).  If you lose your box, you have to step out of the grid and do 5 burpees.  You cannot grab the box if someone knocks it but if you can stabilize it with your finger tips then you are good.  If it falls or you grab it, get on those burpees.

I have seen this done with pizza boxes and it is far more interesting because they are bigger but can be more easily stabilized.

MARY:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
No specific Biblical text but was watching The Chosen Season 1 Episode 8 when Yeshua was talking to the Samaritan woman at the well.  At one point she says, “You picked the wrong person.”  and “I’m rejected by others.” to which Yeshua says, “I know but not by the Messiah.”  While this is not in the Bible, it resonates tremendously in my spirit.  I am ashamedly guilty of judging a book by its cover but not YHWH.  He looks beyond what our eyes see and sees every person he created for who they really are.  We are never to be the judge in this world.  Yeshua called us to love and it is through our love that we show those around us how we are different.  Only when people ask should we offer our views and thoughts from a place of love rather than cramming them down peoples’ throats even though I am guilty of wanting to shake those who do not know, or willingly ignore, they are living apart from YHWH.  YHWH is the only true and righteous judge.  His ways are higher than ours and his thoughts are higher than ours.
