MOLESKINE:

Last weekend, my 9 year old asked if she could help me gather leaves with the backpack leaf blower. Initially I said no but she kept asking, really wanting to help. So I taught her how to use it & pointed her in the right direction while I used the rake. We ended up working together for ~30 minutes, getting a job done that would have taken me an hour. It was a really cool & unexpected moment to bond with my daughter.

Stay open to opportunities to teach a skill to your kids! (Even when you think you could get it done faster without them).

Race to 1000

AO: the-knoll
Q: Half Lyfe
PAX: Gold Digger, Papa Bear, AAA, Pebbles, Malibu, El Capitan, Derby, Roadkill, Étouffée, Link (F3 Houston)
FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
CONDITIONS: perfect fall morning 50 degs.

WARMUP: SSH, WMH, Good Mornings then right to it.

THE THANG: Partner Up: One does exercise, one MOT to tree and back. 400 Squats, 400 Heal Taps, 300 Sit Ups, 300 Step Ups, 200 Dips, 200 Merkins, 100 Swing Rows, 100 Absolutions.

MOT
400’s Mosey
300’s Karaokee
200’s Politicans
100’s Sprint

Ran out of time around Merkins/Swing Rows. As a groups did about 3mins of absolutions. Don’t know what I was thinking for trying to complete 100 of those.

MOLESKINE: 1000 is used 120-130 times in the Bible.

The number 1000 carries special symbolic significance in the Bible, often representing completeness, fullness, or vastness beyond human comprehension.

The symbolic use of 1000 in the Bible invites us to expand our thinking and perception of God’s work in the world. It challenges us to look beyond our immediate circumstances and consider God’s eternal perspective and vast plans for creation.

1. Deuteronomy 7:9 – “Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.” Here, 1000 symbolizes God’s enduring faithfulness.
2. Exodus 20:6 – “But showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.” Here, 1000 is used to express the vastness of God’s love for His faithful followers.
3. 1 Chronicles 16:15 – “He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he made, for a thousand generations.” This verse emphasizes the eternal nature of God’s covenant.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: check slack

COT: count off, name-o-rama, Prayers for El Captain for end of year work rush, Derby’s grandmother who passed away and all those not having a place or people to celebrate the holidays with, Malibu’s job search, Sickness going around with kiddos. Coffeeteria.

MOLESKINE:

There’s a Hebrew word my family meditates on during Passover: “Dayenu” meaning “it is sufficient.” Thanksgiving is also a good time to reflect on this idea & the meaning of contentment. Think about areas in your life where you may be struggling with envy or a simple desire to acquire more. Try to apply this principle of Dayenu & rest in God’s provision for your life.
