Reflection –
Proverbs 16:33 (ESV)
33  The lot is cast into the lap,
    but its every decision is from the LORD.

Do you understand that? That is why I like reading the same scripture from different translations to
make sure I get the point. Here is another translation of the same verse that might be easier to get.

Proverbs 16:33 (NLT)
33  We may throw the dice,
    but the LORD determines how they fall.

This verse reminds us that God is in control. I don’t know that he decided what exercises we did today, but I do know that he is guiding my life and in control. God is sovereign.

  • New Guys is Kirk Davis, 59, of northern Denver area, originally from Iowa.  We did not nickname him today, but upon his return we wll owe him that.  This guy gave much effort!  He was in the Marine Corps, and now disabled.  Guy has had both knees replaced, so running and getting up and down was something we made modifications for, but he did great.
  • Abrams and Diesel were the perfect PAX to have with me today.  They knew how to push themselves and yet allow me to make scalable modifications to accomodate all.  
  • I forgot how a small group makes for no less of a workout.
  • Abrams liked the one arm wall merkins.
  • Felt pretty darn comfortable for high 30's today.
