Well it was another good turn out this week and good to see everyone. Looks like everyone recovered from our fitness test so now we can set about the business of improvement. I hope you'll seize the opportunity to develop a simple routine of exercise to see what you can accomplish over the next six weeks. I think you may surprise yourself. A great point that Kyle and Trevor made in their presentation last night is that exercise is necessary to get in shape but also to keep or maintain a level of fitness. Our relationships are like that too. When we practice or "exercise" our relationships with others, they get better and when we continue in that, our relationships with parents, friends, etc get even stronger. The one relationship that really sets the tone for all others is our relationship to Christ. Have you "exercised" that relationship lately? It shouldn't be hard. The scriptures tell me He's particularly fond of you and seeks a relationship with you. He actually pursues you. Lt. Heckman talked some about this last night when he mentioned our "connectedness" to Christ. Let us fix our eyes on Him (like a finish line) and run the race He sets before us. That's a fitness program we can all use. Do you remember the verses from Hebrews Lt. Heckman talked about? Let me know at the next meeting and I'll have something for you.
Blessings,
Capt. Hayden
