CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of – throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself.”

MOLESKIN:

The quote above is from C.S. Lewis’ book Mere Christianity. God is in the process of making you into something magnificent.  This is especially true if you have suffered a great deal in your life.  God will tear down the walls of your life, and He will rebuild them into something that can house His glory.  We often wonder why God is allowing such great suffering in our lives.  The answer is quite simple, however; some of us have major walls to be torn down.  On the other hand, as a Christian, it is always worth it to endure the tearing down process because, in the end, the beauty that is created is more magnificent than we could have imagined.   Often, we are content to be “a decent little cottage”, however, this is the Christian equivalent to being lukewarm.  God wants to build something incredibly beautiful in you. For some of us, that means extensive renovation.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Ockham’s Razor is the principle that entities should not be multiplied unnecessarily, which is often translated into “the simplest solution is usually the correct one.”  Look for simplicity.  Also known as, the K.I.S.S. method – keep it simple stupid.  Enjoy the simplicity.  See, e.g., Proverbs 16:8 (“Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues with injustice.”).

MOLESKIN:
Prayers for Pat and her family for the loss of Cory, for Aladdin and his work family and the trying year that they have had, Ribbed’s wife, the blood drive, and the brothers participating in Hardship Hill.

Asylum IPC Week 3

THE SCENE: Fall-ish, 49 degrees when we kicked off
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
Warm up OYO and explained iron pax for this week
THA-THANG:

Measure out 400 meters or 1 lap around a standard track.
Measure out 50 yards (using a football field would help significantly)
The Thang
Set the timer for 2 minutes.
Exercises to be done are:
50 Kraken Burpees (3 hand release merkins to a burpee = 1)
50 BDE burpees (burpee, to a Bonnie Blair/jumping lunge (1 on each leg), to a squat = 1)
50 Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunge (right leg-left leg = 1)
Workout starts at the cone. Start the timer.
Begin 50 kraken burpees.
When timer goes off, sprint to the other cone that is 50 yards away and continue with Kraken Burpees.
For example, if you did 8 kraken burpees before the timer went off, when you get to the opposite cone, you start counting with the number 9.
This continues until you finish all 50 kraken burpees.
After finishing 50 Kraken Burpees, run one lap (400 meters).
Upon completing 400 meters and returning to the cones, begin 50 BDE burpees. Same procedure as above.
When you return, you start doing the BDE Burpees right away and when the timer goes off, you run to the other cone.
You DO NOT have to wait for the next timer to go off when you return to start the BDE Burpees.
After finishing 50 BDE Burpees, run two laps (800 meters).
Upon completing 800 meters and returning to the cones, begin 50 Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunges (right leg-left leg = 1)
When you return, you start doing the Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunges right away and when the timer goes off, you run to the other cone.
You DO NOT have to wait for the next timer to go off when you return to start the Bonnie Blairs/Jumping Lunges.
After finishing 50 Bonnie Blairs/Jumping lunges, run three laps (1200 meters).
You are done after completing 3 laps.
