CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Matthew 6:19-21 – What do you treasure? 

From the devotions of Thomas à Kempis in “The Imitation of Christ” 

This is the greatest wisdom – to seek the kingdom of heaven through contempt of the world. It is vanity, therefore, to seek and trust in riches that perish. It is vanity also to court honor and to be puffed up with pride…It is vanity to wish for long life and to care little about a well-spent life. … It is vanity to love what passes quickly and not to look ahead where eternal joy abides. 

MOLESKIN:
Prayer for the 14 yr old kid Silas who is in the hospital with a severe head injury.

THA-THANG:

We played “Encantados”. We divided in two teams, the objective was to capture all the other team members in less than 5 mins. If you get caught, then you will do 20 merkins and 20 squats. If all your team is captured, the whole team will do 20 burpees as punishment :). We had a lot of fun and it was really hard to chase some of the fellas, they were expert dodgers :).

We mosey to the soccer fields, but on our way we performed some fun exercises:

  • 20 box jumps.
  • 20 Derkins.
  • 20 Toe Merkins.
  • 20 Dips.
  • 20 BBS.
  • 20 Heels to Heaven.

At the soccer field we played some penalty kicks. We regrouped again in teams, if the team scored, they would decide what exercise the other team would do and it would be repeated 20 times. We ended up doing the exercises all together since the our team was not that expert with the ball :).

Mosey to the Flag and 20 more squats.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Do you ever have an experience where you are seeking an answer to a problem and you discover the answer is right in front of you?
I was tired of being “overweight”, i ballooned up to 210 and knew what to do, but despite working out and running 5-6 days a week I was making no progress.  I knew I needed to make better eating decisions but didn’t want to commit.  The answer was in front of me in plain sight, but I was intentionally blind to it.
it’s been a 90 day journey, but with moderation to my eating habits I have been able to drop my weight into the mid 180’s.  This has increased my ability to “push it” during the workouts.  The answer was there all along.

In Luke 24, on the rod to Emmaus, 2 men had a similar experience they met a “stranger” and explained their sorrow that Jesus was dead.  The stranger was actually Jesus, but they were blind to that.  Jessie eventually reveals himself and they found the answer they were seeking.  (This is a massive paraphrase, lol).

This revelation was life altering.  What exists in your life that you are missing that is hiding in plain sight?  Are you burying your head and being ignorant, are you seeking the answer?  Sometimes what you seek, like my weight, is obvious, and owning up to your shortcomings will reveal the answer.
