Transition to Lake: Indian Race Run

The indian race run is like the indian run but with two races added. The last person in line sprints up to front and back to back and keeps going around back up to the front. So each person does two loops around the train. When that sprinter gets to the back the first time, the next person in line races him back up to the top. Upon reaching the beginning the first person stops and the second person begins his loop to the back where the next last person will race him up to the top. (Repeat).

33 HIMs at JUCO.  Welcome FNG, Hound Dog!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Proverbs 28:23 – “He who rebukes a man will afterward find more favor than he who flatters with the tongue.”  Confrontation is sometimes a difficult thing to overcome, but sugar-coating the truth may be worse.  Correcting a brother, may help him to direct him back to the right path and may help save their soul.  As a result, a stronger, more meaningful relationship may flourish.
MOLESKIN:
It was great to get to Q once again at JUCO.  It is amazing what a year has brought to this AO!

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
4 HIMs were not afraid of the threat of a cold rain today.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Context is always important when studying the Bible, joining a conversation, reading a news article, and many other activities.  Without it, one can twist what is read or heard into what they wish fit their lifestyle or justify their take on things.  YHC’s M likes to give me a hard time about all the running I do.  She quotes to me the first part of Proverbs 28:1 – “The wicked flee when no one is pursuing…”.  Some translations say “run when no one is chasing them”.  This is her excuse for not running outside no matter the conditions.  All in jest of course.  If we continue to read:  “…but the righteous are bold as a lion.”  The second part of the verse adds context to the first part that is necessary for full understanding of the passage.  The wicked flee because they are trying to hide their life or their decisions from those around them and probably from God.  The righteous are bold because they have nothing to hide and want to share the hope within them with those around them.  When you study the Bible, always make sure you gather all the context necessary to gain the whole truth.
MOLESKIN:

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
you may not always understand someones path, and seeking out to understand their path may not work.  But know that the lord put you in that individuals path for a reason.  you are given a choice just as everyone else is.  What will you do with your choice.

 

I call to mind the merciful story of God’s love that we heard today in a spiritual retreat for the clergy.   the Priest speaker said that God knows the struggle of those who are addicted.   He knows that their efforts are flawed and weak.   God also knows that with-in the fog of confusion, there is a soul crying to God for his help.  Like the good thief on the cross, you son will have the chance to hear the words, “Today, you will be with me in paradise.”
