Moleskin

Got thrown some sudden change by the soccer field being locked.  First time I have ever seen that.  I think things worked out even better than my original plan since we got to add a leg COP and some pull-ups.  Life often works out that way.

T-claps to Jazzy for his third consecutive post.  He goes all out and makes the rest of us want to work out harder because of his effort.  It was also great to have Reluctant Yankee back at #RockCity and I always know I can count on seeing Amnesty at the flag on Monday mornings.  I think he is a more consistent presence at #RockCity than YHC.

Shout Out

Inspired by Jazzy’s contribution to the Saturday’s shout out, YHC quoted Joshua 1:9: “Be strong and of good courage.  Do not fear or be dismayed for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”  When the 12 Israelite spies were sent into the Promise Land they all came back with a report of the giants that occupied that land.  Ten of them feared the giants, saying there is no way they can take the land.  Joshua and Caleb; however, were not dismayed.  They believed that God would deliver the land no matter what size men were occupying it.  When we face giants in our life, do not fear or be dismayed, but face them with the courage and strength found in God .

Prayers were lifted for those suffering from cancer and those suffering from the earthquake in Nepal.
