THE THANG:
Mosey to the back lot

Every man draws an F3 workout card

Each player rolls the dice. Whatever number they roll, multiply by 2 for the reps and do the excercise on the card they hold.

If you roll snake eyes, we have to do the exercise with number of reps, but then we run a lap before the next exercise.

*Core Exercises are on a 4 count
*Sprints will be a landmark spot chosen by the player, down and back (no matter the roll)
*Planks are measured in 10 seconds (ex: roll of 8 = 80 secs)
*Jokers are player choice

Played 2 rounds of that.

COT:
A couple of weeks ago, I talked about the Advent plan I’m reading in my Bible app. I wanted to highlight some of the good stuff. Hope was the subject. Today, I think about peace. Peace is defined as a state of wholeness, calm, and renewal between us, God, and others.

Here are 5 truths and reminders of how we obtain peace. Peace:

1. comes when we keep our attention and focus on God. He is a rock, never changing.

2. battles our fears. “in God I trust; I shall not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?” – Psalm 56:3-4

3. is a gift from God through the Holy Spirit. “The fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22)

4. isn’t limited to our worldly circumstances. John 16:33, Jesus says “…in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” Again, this peace goes back to where we place our focus.

5. does not always make sense, but it always connects us to God. My favorite passage is Philippians 4:4-7, “…The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

My prayer today and at this Christmas time is for the men and families of F3 to be at peace. Like the angels said to the shepherds, “Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”

COT:
Do Not Worry
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life.

99.9% of the time I do not follow the wisdom in this passage. I need this reminder daily.

COT
“It is dangerous to live without your heart being captured by awe of God, because awe of God is quickly replaced by awe of you. “”

It is a daily battle,
one that is free of
physical weapons,
political parties,
and national boundaries.
It is a battle that has ben raging
since the garden
and will not stop until the war
is finally won.
This battle is not fought
between people,
it is fought
within people.
It is a much greater danger
to each of us
than war between nations
will ever be.
It is a battle of awe.
We were created to live in
a real,
heart-gripping,
agenda-setting,
behavior-forming
awe of God.
But other awes kidnap our hearts.
Awe of creation,
awe of other people,
and awe of ourselves
shove the awe of God
out of our hearts.
So we need grace to see again,
to tremble again,
and to bow down again
at the feet of the One who deserves
our awe.”-Paul David Tripp (New Morning Mercies)

COT:
“Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers; but his delight is in the law of the Lord, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water that yields its fruit in its season, and its leaf does not wither. In all that he does, he prospers. The wicked are not so, but are like chaff that the wind drives away. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous; for the Lord knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked will perish.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭1‬:‭1‬-‭6‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Stuff was done. See post by Crawdad above :point_up_2: because apparently Crawdad has not learned how to do a formal backblast in slack. First half by me, and the second have by Crawdad, who delivered two messages in the COT:

1. You can’t change your life without changing something that you do everyday.
2. If you come out and enjoy the BSIA, then you should be Qing 1-2 times per year, at a minimum.

Convergence next week, or, as Crawdad called it, a “Brovergence.” Crawdad will be there as a “Brovirgin.” I will not be there because my kids have a swim meet. Enjoy and don’t get hurt. It should help that the sun will be up at 7:00 since it is after the time change.
