COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
5 PAX.  Ribbed left early because he had “a meeting,” which he first mentioned during the burpees, so . . . .

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I’m still trying to be positive.  I’ve cut out the news and focused on my inner circle.  In noticing my kids grow up, I’m sad that the time has gone by so quickly and that they are not little anymore.  I’m trying to be happy because those times happened and these times are happening now and not sad because those times are gone.  I’m trying to look at the last year not as a lost year of our usual events but as a pause year – a year of slowing down and taking everything in at that moment that we might have otherwise been too busy to fully appreciate.  It’s not always easy to do.  Like I said, I’m trying.

”Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.”  Galatians 6:9.

MOLESKIN:
Prayers for Ribbed’s wife and Doubtfire (separately, not together – that would be weird)

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
I’m sure there is something, but we couldn’t think of anything at the time.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Ruth 2— When Ruth went back to work again, Boaz ordered his young men, “Let her gather grain right among the sheaves without stopping her. And pull out some heads of barley from the bundles and drop them on purpose for her. Let her pick them up, and don’t give her a hard time!”

So Ruth gathered barley there all day, and when she beat out the grain that evening, it filled an entire basket.

 

Boaz did much more than the minimum requirement in providing for Ruth, and in turn, Naomi. Israelite law required that those in need be allowed to pick up grain that was dropped on the ground, and Boaz actually encouraged his workers to intentionally drop grain for Ruth. How can you go above & beyond the requirements of loving those around you, especially those in need?
