The Thang:

No one signed up for the Q so YHC simply pulled out a standard weinke doing an isometric workout. YHC called an exercise with 2+ positions that could held.  YHC started at 1 and Pax count like numberama moving into the first position as they count. YHC starts at 1 again, and moves into the second position with pax following suit.  Rinse and repeat until YHC was tired and a new exercise is picked.  Exercises included: Squats, Curls, Flutter Kicks, jump lunges, calf raises, CPRs, Xs and Os, leg raises (3 inches to 45 degrees with an occasional Hello Dolly)

Devo: YHC had a crazy Monday.  Was scheduled to sign over deed of the house to ex-M and got a call from a friend needing to be driven to the Dr for blood work.  Got it all taken care of together and returned friend and 2.0 to their home and got talking to their neighbor about the street and noticed that a house was for sale.  YHC checked the listing and realized that even though he hadn’t been shopping for a home, that this one met a lot of his requirements.  Sunday’s message was about taking risks so YHC called McFly around 1:30 to check on the house and set up a showing. Walked the house around 5:30 and since initial quotes from the bank weren’t great, he decided to wait from them and told McFly he would let him know in the morning.  After dinner, YHC was considering pros and cons and when considering the negative, God nudged, and YHC wrote down “Is the only thing that is keeping me from moving forward fear?”.  YHC acknowledged the fear and instead of panicking, rioting, or lashing out, he checked his email and saw that the bank came back and the numbers aligned with exactly what they needed to be.  A quick call to McFly to put in the offer and by 10:30, the offer was accepted as is even though there had been multiple showings and another offer submitted.  So many lessons from God, but the big one, if we aren’t paying attention, aren’t being led by the spirit (i.e. taking a friend to the Dr.) and willing to take risks (risks and RISKS), we may miss out on something that God wants to put in our lives.  Don’t let fear paralyze you or cause you to lash out.  Let God speak to you through it and take the steps that He is calling you to take.

Moleskin:   YHC has struggled with how to feel during this time and definitely realized that fear can lead to all sorts of results.  God definitely showed how fear can cause us to react poorly and that if we can address it properly, it can take us on a crazy journey!
