BOM/WORD:
 
We joked around some today and had fun with the idea of the movie “Groundhog Day – the day that keeps repeating it self. In real life, we often can fall into the same type of issue. We will do the same things with the same people and it becomes monotonous. It can leave us with the sensation of wanting more. It’s not wrong to want more, it’s not wrong to want to be successful and it’s not wrong to want new experiences. However, we can be left frustrated and that frustration from creep interactions with her coworkers, spouses and families. As I consider this I was reminded of a scripture I recently read through with my children.
 
“What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? You desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have, because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions.”
‭‭James‬ ‭4:1-3‬ ‭ESV‬‬
When we don’t get what we want we get frustrated. It doesn’t take a lot of introspection to be able to see that in our own lives. When we strive for things we want because we think it will make us happy, or fulfilled we miss the target and the frustration does not lift. Instead we should focus on those around us. We ought to ask the question, “Lord, is this something I should desire? Is it something you intend for me to have?”
When we ask for things, not to spend on our own quest for personal enjoyment, but rather to pour into others, the frustration is replaced by joy and contentment when the gift is bestowed. I encourage you to ask the question (above) before you ask for the gift.

I hate running. Running sucks. But, I got talked into this #CSAUP Tennessee Ragnar Relay and have to train…so today we ran more than my usual workouts. The men fussed a little. My legs tried to quit on me. But we pushed through the repetitive workout together. Good job men.

BOM:
Kids attitude towards death and heaven. Example of my daughter Molly. We told her about her grandmother dying and that she is in a much better place with God in heaven now and she simply replied: “that’s great! Can I have a waffle now.”
She got it, she simply knew that her grandmother was in a better place, that she is with our father in paradise. A comforting fact that we can bank on as believers.
It can also motivate us to reach out to the lost and help lead them to eternal peace and fellowship with other believers in paradise.

WORD:

Great minds discuss ideas. Average minds discuss events. Small minds discuss people.

Moleskin:

Great workout with Swirlie and Tank – the small group size makes each other better.  Swirlie stuck around for some more KB swings – working on the form.  I don’t think he’s wondering about the 1.5 pood ‘bell anymore.  He want it.  Badly.  Tank, better start swinging the heavier ‘bells – Swirlie is nipping at Tweet-e’s heels!

BOM:

Shared my Testimony with the PAX. “No one after lighting a lamp covers it up with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. Luke 8:16

Walking in faith can be scary at times, but it is through faith where we will grow and become the HIM’s we were meant to be through the Sky-Q.

Moleskin: We’re still missing the shovel flag, Frosty? We woke up to a beautiful Florida this morning, oddly warm and windy. We finished up right before the downpour. P-Nut was lobbying for a 25 minute show, but we ran over and used every minute. The Bobby Brick Hurley’s were a real crowd please’r and we found the bricks a new home. Nobody walked out with any injuries that they didn’t walk in with, so that’s good. Great day to be a part of this PAX.
