Modified Murph

We began with some standard stretches and then ran a lap and a half to the pull-up bars. We completed 10 sets of the following:

• 5 pull-ups
• 20 merkins
• 30 squats

Then concluded by finishing our 2 miles.

lately I’ve been thinking about a quote from Mark Twain “It isn’t those parts of tue bible that I can’t understand that bother me, it is the parts I do understand.”. There are many parts in the Bible like this.
This morning I was reading for a bit and read Luke 5:8, which says “blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” This is one of those verses that seems pretty straightforward, but how often do we really focus on what it means to be pure? Jesus makes it clear that we must be pure in heart, but we live in a radically impure world that seems to bombard us with things that would lead our hearts astray. This can be as simple as a quick commercial or magazine covers in the checkout line at the grocery store… these things can often have a subliminal impact on us and cause our minds and hearts to stray. Let’s strive for purity in our lives. This is a huge step in becoming the men that God is calling each of us to be.
