THE THANG:
We rucked about three miles in the neighborhood with a good elevation gain. When we got back to the AO, Fast said we were about a tenth short of 3 miles. So, we rucked couple laps in the parking lot to get three officially. We had some light rain on the ruck.

Matthew Ch 13
18 “Listen then to what the parable of the sower means: 19 When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in their heart. This is the seed sown along the path. 20 The seed falling on rocky ground refers to someone who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. 21 But since they have no root, they last only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, they quickly fall away. 22 The seed falling among the thorns refers to someone who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke the word, making it unfruitful. 23 But the seed falling on good soil refers to someone who hears the word and understands it. This is the one who produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.”
May we pray that our hearts are good soil.

COT:
1 Cor 15 again. Is Jesus really alive? It makes all the difference in the world. If not, I have spent a lot of time talking to no one in particular and should be pitied like someone who is unstable.

I’ve also lost out on chances to get the last word in, make myself look better than I really am, and denied my cravings for no reason. But if he is, then I know someone who has (or is) resurrection power, says he’ll be with me, and that all things will work for my good.

If so, then…

Vanity >>> purpose
Death >>> life
Despair >>> hope
Fleeting time >>> eternity
Sin >>> forgiveness
Brokenness >>> redemption
Failure >>> victory
Bondage >>> freedom
Darkness >>> light

Shared a bit on the significance of Easter, particularly why Jesus had to die and had to rise again. Jesus death was in our place as the recipient of the penalty we deserved and His resurrection proved Him to be more than just another man to die on a cross

COT:
In Psalm 18 David went through a trial. He wrote of how God helped him and delivered him from death. Also, David had kept his hands clean as he went through the trial. He “kept himself from sin” in verse 23. I reflected on a recent difficult situation and this part of PS 18 came to mind. I know that I am not perfect, but I didn’t have anything that I needed to reconcile, make up for, apologize for, etc. It doesn’t always happen like that for me, but in this case, I was glad that I could say that.

Still in need of sharpening – YHC, FixerUpper
