Little known facts about laziness #2

little known facts about laziness #1

They don’t know they’re lazy

Prov 26:16

The sluggard is wiser in his own eyes then seven men who can answer sensibly.

Proverbs paints a picture of the lazy and challenges us to take a look at ourselves. Is this me? What areas is this happening in my life? If I feel convicted and deny it, watch out! When I’m lazy I don’t know it and have all the excuses no matter how many reasonably people point it out to me. 😬 ouch!!

This is something I’ve been challenged with recently in my own life particularly with my family. Being intentional with spending time with kids and wife and not turning off at the end of the day.

This is our challenge today

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I talked about my struggle to pray when times are good, and my desire to pray when times are tough.  I recently dropped my daughter off at a camp in Palo Alto CA.  She is 15, and we were both struggling at the prospect of her being on her own.  I finally left her, and I was a wreck emotionally.  I took a long walk around the Stanford Campus to clear my head and spent a lot of time in prayer.

My daughter met some people and did great, and I hailed an UBER back to San Francisco.  I encountered the best driver I have ever had.  He had over 28,000 trips and maintained a 4.99 star rating out of 5.  Nasim was a Jordanian immigrant.  He retired from the grocery business, and drives UBER for fun.  He loves people, and was raised as a Christian in Jordan, before immigrating to the US.  We had a delightful conversation, and he was an answer to prayers, and maybe even an angel.  Nasim and I swapped numbers and he texted me the next day (Father’s Day) to see how I was doing.

We need God all of the time, not just when things are rough, the challenge this week is to remember that and spend some time in prayer.  God is real, He is there just waiting for you to have a relationship with Him.

Mosey to the inner loop road just over from shovel flag. We took a detour and everyone thought I was lost.

There we met an 80 lb sandbag

We divided up into groups of 2. Group 1 partner carries the sandbag ~10-12 steps then burpee (repeat sequence 3 times then run back to the first station. Group 2 will do the same and so on…While each group is taking their turn the other groups will be working on the 1st station of exercises. When the sandbag reaches the next station everyone progresses to that station. Stations were roughly .24 miles apart.

We caught up to the group with the sandbag with about 5 minutes left and finished carrying it back to the AO in the same fashion. The rest of the group alternated between bear crawl and walking.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Hopefully today you’ve been exposed to a new workout. The goal was to get us out of our comfort zone a little.
Think about your daily routine a little. Maybe you come here, eat, run to the office, do some sort of hobby or kid activity, etc.
What if your best laid plans and goals were thrown off for some reason….there are terrible ways that can happen like losing your job or an accident, but there are also positive ways like job opportunities, unexpected callings or kids
The character of a person…and in this case a MAN… is how you react in those situations. I don’t want a show of hands, but if you cringed or had a negative reflection of how you would probably react…then you need to remember that gods in control. You should feel comfort in Him and fall back on your values and trusts that you are in good hands.
Sometimes He like to take us out of our comfort zones and frankly laughs at them. He’s laughed at mine twice over the past year…
Matthew chapter 4
Jesus, God’s son is the trustworthy one
On the heals of fathers day, this hits home to me because those unexpected calls have caused me to hesitate…which to me has seemed like a failure in grasping His plan for me and our family. However, he’s trusting in me to care for his children and I hope that I can be the father and the example that they need
