CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:  Having been greatly discouraged and with no words of encouragement to offer, YHC recalled the following passage from Psalm 19:

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words, whose voice is not heard. Their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world.

Even when we do not have words, heaven and earth speak.  Even when our smallness and frailty are evident, the created order is evidence of majesty.  

MOLESKIN:  During the workout, Chioccetti ripped off the middle finger of his glove and directed QIC’s attention to the abruptly exposed phalanges.  Prayers for Chioccetti’s M.  Apparently the gloves really come off at 2200.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:  Crucible training next Tuesday (2/26/19).
