Especially with our M’s but this applies to everyone we come in contact with. If you have something nice to say, go ahead and say it. Give the word of encouragement, give the compliment, and speak the words of praise. It will make a massive impact on people’s lives.

Take half the blocks to the swings, and half the blocks to the pull up bars.  Divide into two groups, one group has three guys to swing pullups, while the onlookers do rows.  Rotate in an out until the second group arrives to relieve you.  The second group is at the pull up bars.  Perform 10 Pullups or 10 negatives (jumping up and slowly coming down).  The onlookers perform lawn mowers.  After everyone does 10, rotate to the swings.  Rinse and repeat 3 times.  After three rotations, we did some curls and bench press with the CMU’s before putting them away.

Dream big.  Jesus did more than was expected he saved lives, he performed miracles, he did more than anyone could even imagine.  The challenge for each of us to to step outside our normal thoughts and think bigger.  How can we dream big, what do we need to push out of the way to open our minds?

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Completing what you started. God starts what He finishes. Jesus wasn’t plan B. He has a time for everything and a place for you and me to fit in. Today we are here on a Wednesday. Everything is perfect in time. I’m praying about what to do with my time. I have a PE exam to study, friendships to pursue, a church to serve, a job to work, and lots more…

But the real test is do we trust God for what he calls us to do when we feel like He will not complete it for us or that we have to hold on to have him complete that in us? A passage where Jesus challenges us to count the cost and the time for things in order to complete it – Luke 15:25-33:

25 Now great crowds accompanied him, and he turned and said to them, 26 “If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. 27 Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple. 28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it? 29 Otherwise, when he has laid a foundation and is not able to finish, all who see it begin to mock him, 30 saying, ‘This man began to build and was not able to finish.’ 31 Or what king, going out to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and deliberate whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? 32 And if not, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends a delegation and asks for terms of peace. 33 So therefore, any one of you who does not renounce all that he has cannot be my disciple.

Jesus challenges us to make sure we know what the cost of something is – a house, a marriage, a new job, staying at your old job, a lawsuit, everything- we must count it! Anybody know what TINSTAAFL means? There Is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch. God counted the cost when He sent Christ in a twofold way:

Romans 8:31-32 – 31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be[i] against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things?

Philippians 1:6 –6 And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

So today, where are you counting (or not counting) the cost? Are you grateful for the cost the Father gave of Christ’s blood? If not, pause and reflect.

MOLESKIN:

Competition & Challenges

THE SCENE: Less hot than it has been, but still hot enough to cause one to drip massive amounts of sweat off their nose
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
25 Side Straddle Hops because Pool Boy was not yet in attendance
5 Cherry pickers
10 Baby Arm Circles forward & backward
Arm Stretches
Quad Stretching

THA-THANG:
Mosey to the Merkin Mile
1st round
Pair up with a partner, and at each line one partner does 5 merkins, at the next line the 2nd partner does 5 V ups, and rotate in this fashion until you reach the next speed bump.  At the end, swap exercises and work your way back.
2nd round
Same format as before, but 10 squats while the partner does 10 LBC’s
3rd round (cut short for time)
Same format but one partner did 20 Shoulder taps, while the other partner did 10 BBS

Time was called and we set a timer for 10 minutes.
The goal was to hold plank starting on your elbows for as long as you could.  When you break plank you perform the following:
10 Burpees
10 Lunges (5 each leg)
20 High knees
then resume the plank position.  It was ok to modify to planking from your hands.

Repeat this until the timer sounds at 10 minutes.

MARY:
There was no time for Mary, we did plenty of core work during the workout.
