The best day is today 

Because yesterday is gone and tomorrow is not guaranteed

Above were quoted by LAZ , the guy that puts on the Barkley marathon
MOLESKIN:
Yep, I got a little emotional this morning when reading the quoted above, why? Well, just thinking about living life to its fullest and taking advantage of the present. Several men deal with some pretty heavy stuff right now , Bumblebee being one of those men . Though I don’t know him , really at all, I still think about him and his family as well as other men and their families. I pray and wish the best for ALL and hope we can all live it up, have no regrets, and reject passivity !

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
This week a friend of mine from high school hit rock bottom. He was truly broken in all sense of the word. He is suffering from drug addiction and he is being treated at a facility as we speak. It is when we are broken that we can truly see the overwhelming love of God. We ignore or forget his gift when things are going our way and we “have no need” for God. But when your broken and then made new, you can truly appreciate Gods gift to us. Example of a light stick, breaking and then glowing.
MOLESKIN:

BOM :
Heard this song and the lyrics really let me know the extent of Gods love for us.
Reckless Love lyrics
When I was Your foe, still Your love fought for me
When I felt no worth, You paid it all for me
There’s no shadow You won’t light up
Mountain You won’t climb up
There’s no wall You won’t kick down
Lie You won’t tear down
Coming after me
……the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
…..it chases me down, fights ’til I’m found, leaves the ninety-nine
……I couldn’t earn it, I don’t deserve it, still, You give Yourself away
Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God.
Moleskin: Welcome FNG Walkman to the pax! He was run-by EH by a couple of us during the TTTP, saw the shirts and looked us up online.
