COT

A strong core is what holds everything together. Physically or as a Nation. In F3 , we promote the third F that leaders believe in “something bigger than ourselves”. I call it the Copernican Epiphany when we ultimately realize the world doesn’t revolve around us.
As a nation
that continues to move away from being “under God” (the DNC actually omitted that from The pledge of Allegiance this week at their convention 🙁 we become more selfish and polarized. Consequently, on the extremes of the both the left AND right we find a greater and greater void of true belief in something bigger than self which leads to policy that cares little about our fellow man. As leaders who DO believe, we must be take action to help bring our country back to the middle with a strong common core belief. “A house divided cannot stand”

Prayers for Ducktales two friends, Praise for Lute being home in Chattanooga with Vera Hope, Prayer for our Country!

Moleskin

Jazzy’s knees were a little tender doing the Quadraplex for the 11s which was surprising since I figured he would have some good callouses…from PRAYING so much! 😉
