Devo:

Lord, Lord

“So why do you keep calling me ‘Lord, Lord!’ when you don’t do what I say?” (NLT) ( Luke 6:46 )

 

Do you ever get a feeling that God is telling you to do something?  That is called conviction.  Sometimes, we are convicted to do things that are difficult and all we want to do is run away.  But when we run away, we compromise with God.  We want the benefits of a relationship but when He asks us to obey Him, we are not willing to do the hard work.  What area of your life is God convicting you to honor Him with?

Moleskin:   This was very similar to what I ran at Bedrock on Tuesday.  The loop was smaller so more exercises were done.  The team of 4 found a grocery store buggy and utilized it on a few of their runs.  They were kind enough to offer it to YHC’s team but we declined.  Ain’t nobody got time to be falling out of no buggy.  Always fun at the TOTS.  Thanks for allowing me to lead.

On a serious note.  Cannoli is running for Dorchester County  School board.  DD2.  He is in need of signatures just to get his name on the ballet.  Even if you don’t want to vote for him and you live in Dorchester County reach out to him to get your name on his signature list.  However,  I’m not sure why you wouldn’t want to vote for him.  He is a great dude and has the best interest of our youth in mind.
