Several of the pax had completed long runs on Friday, so I was looking for a Q that had minimum running. I thought I would add a little leg work in , but I would not have if I knew that Metermaid and Meatloaf were running 10 miles AFTER my Q. I thought they did that Friday. Sorry guys! I also didn’t know if it would be pouring rain or snow or not. So, I decided to bring in the old 1100 that is seen often at Fury and do it in the gazebo.

Countorama, Namorama, Announcements- PAX party this Friday, and a few prayer requests. I did take a moment for a brief devotion. It revolved around 1 Corinthians chapter 8. In this chapter, Paul is describing how we have to be careful as Christians not to do things that shake the faith or offend fellow believers. There are many things to consider in this chapter. Paul is talking about his freedom he feels with his RELATIONSHIP with Christ and that he hasn’t earned anything. Whereas other believers focused a lot on traditions and rituals. Also discusses about not doing things that make fellow believers stumble. An example of this would be you feel it is OK to have a beer. But your friend is a recovering alcoholic. Even though you feel you are not doing wrong, maybe it is best to not have that beer around him. One thing I took to heart about the chapter is that Paul is intentional about considering the feelings and needs of those around him. So, I kind of added a thought to this chapter that may or may not have been what Paul was talking about. We are in many relationships- family, friends, coworkers, fellow believers, etc. In those relationships, a lot of times things are said that are misunderstood. Things are done that are no big deal to one member , but a big deal to another. The same issue has 2 different views, one might be mainstream while another is considered odd. In these relationships we have, disagreements , arguments, and stands are made. I don’t think God looks at it as who is right, who makes sense, who is being silly, who is offended for no reason, who makes the biggest splash with a great point. I think God is looking to see who is working to make it right, who is considering the other side, who puts the other ahead of themselves. And it is hard to do. But I just challenge each of you – especially with your M!, and with children, and co-workers , and friends; try not as often to figure out who is in the right, who is the winner, etc. Figure out what can be done to bring peace, to restore fellowship, and to be there for each other.
Pusher out. Hopefully this back blast more understandable than one just rushed thru.
