COUNT-O-RAMA

NAME-O-RAMA

COT:  Reminded the PAX of the words of Jesus: “You have heard it said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, ‘Love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you.”  It isn’t always easy to love even your neighbor, and is much harder to exercise the kind of love Christ calls us to.  It requires not just an act of our will, but an act of God.  I encouraged the PAX to love someone intentionally during the course of their day.  Some of our men are true heroes at this, and others, like myself, appreciate a reminder and encouragement to love like Jesus instructed.

PRAYER REQUESTS/PRAYER

MOLESKIN: Bear Crawls through a wet golf course in the dark sometimes reveal unexpectedly warm puddles.  T-claps to Oz and Four Eyes for chatting through the entire workout while I sucked wind and tried to keep the count going.
