In our COT I shared about “seeing the forest through the trees”. How sometimes it’s easy to get caught up with the details and pressures of our lives and to pause and zoom out can be useful to realign our perspective with God’s perspective.
We closed in prayer, lifting up Backstage and his family who all currently have COVID as well as Bean Counter’s friend’s large family who all have COVID. We also prayed for those who are traveling and for God’s direction and peace to be with us as we leave 2020 and enter into 2021.
Naked Man Moleskin
As this was my VQ I am happy with the result and thankful for the support of the men who showed up this morning. I wish the weather would have allowed for the run that was planned but the SSH and Rocky Balboa modification kept the calories burning well enough.
Here’s to hoping 2021 brings more in the gloom workouts but leaves behind the gloom of 2020’s pandemic.
