Reading:
Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
In this passage Paul calls the believer to live his or her life in a manner that is Holy and acceptable to God. For the better part of 11 chapters in Romans Paul talks about “mans” state and that we are dead in our trespasses, but by the grace of God, we that are believers have been called to life through the gospel of Salvation. “Therefore” act like it! (Tweeter’s interpretation). We are attempting to “renew” our body everyday when we get up and work out. Are we doing the same spiritually and in how we lead our family. Be different men! Don’t be conformed to the world.

-It was a solid performance by all this morning. We had individuals at different stages of fitness this morning with some coming out after an extended time away and some regulars. With that said the one constant was the effort. There were no slackers this morning all pushed themselves. Very impressed by that today. YHC needed some assistance from the group today as I forgot my own Q plan. Thanks for the help on that BenGay. Koby was attempting to take Polly’s place at epicenter and it looks to be a good battle for the mumble chatter spot. It was great having the Original Nantan posting with us today. He picked up close to where he left off. A few weeks at it and he will have his cardio back to his top form. Great to see Mulligan continuing to come out and get better. Just when we thought we would have a little break, Boy George challenged us to finish strong by running tot he coupon cage. Thanks for the push!
Tweeter is thankful to be among this group of men!
