We did some laps around the new building stopping at each entrance. The exercises at each entrance were:

  • 15 Lunges.
  • 10 Burpees.
  • 10 Heels to Heaven.
  • 15 Derkins / 30 Toe Merkins.
  • 20 Box Jumps / 20 Dips.
  • 20 BBS.

Egg Hunt.

We divided ourselves in 2 teams, we collected as many eggs as we could and we gave the eggs that we collected to the other team as a present :)…then the teams had to run around a loop (800 feet), crack open the eggs and do the exercise prescribed by the egg :). Team number 2 did a great job finishing all of the eggs in less than 10 mins…great work gents!!!

Prey-Predator Game.

Two Stop signs. Three predators and many preys. The objective was to carry as many eggs as possible from one stop sign to the other douching for the predators. If you get caught by a predator, you do 10 burpees, you become a predator and the predator becomes a prey. It was a really fun game, but there was not much time to do many rounds :'(.

MARY:
No time.

“always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
Ephesians 5:20 NIV

If you’re in the Bible study we’re on a 21 day gratitude journey. I love these. Not only is it a positive experience while you’re doing it, but when you go back and read through everything you’ve journaled, it’s pretty cool too.
Thank you gentlemen for challenging me! I have nothing but respect for you guys.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ. – Galatians 6:2 NASB1995

Therefore encourage one another and build up one another, just as you also are doing. – 1 Thessalonians 5:11 NASB1995

Trying to shoulder our burdens all by ourselves is really difficult. We are called to bear one another’s burdens and build each other. That means that when we have burdens too heavy to bear, we have to be willing to share them with our trusted brothers. I know this can be very difficult for us men who want to generally hold in our emotions and our challenges. We typically think that it shows weakness to ask for help. Fact is…we need it.

“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” – Matthew 11:28‭-‬30 NASB1995

We can find our ultimate (eternal) rest in Jesus.

MARY:
Ran for cover, where we did LBC, Kick throughs, Hello Dolly, Imperial Walkers, Slow BBS spine bounce up things (Needs a name), High Hello Dolly, a few other things and ended with Supermans.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Yesterday was Resurrection Sunday.  That is all about New life.  Eternal life.  And Eternal life doesn’t start when we die.  It starts when we see life for what it is and live with Him.

Consider the most memorized verse: John 3:16  “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son so that whoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life“.  There are so many other verses- just search “eternal life” in YouVersion or another bible app and you’ll see the Abundant life Jesus talks about in John 10:10 is from Him.

So my challenge to you this week is to share some scripture with someone this week.  Maybe (hopefully) it’s in a slack channel.  Share some scripture with you kids and wife.  Share some scripture with a friend by text.  Maybe a neighbor needs to hear it.   God’s Word will not return void.  It gives life.  Share it.
