Today marked my 2nd year as being part of F3. I appreciate all the support and friendships I have gained through this group. Today 10 men showed up to celebrate. It was Shines bday as well. His M made cupcakes for us which became a distraction for most during the workout. Tclaps to 9 pax who ran stridelite.

Unreasonable- Charles Stanley
“My thoughts are not your thought, nor are your ways My ways”, says the Lord
Isaiah 55:8
Sometimes God will require something of you that doesn’t make sense. For example, Jesus said that if a fellow strikes you on the cheek, you should turn and offer him the other (Matthew 5:39). That;s not exactly reasonable.
The Savior also said that if someone commands you to go one mile with him, you should cheerfully go two- giving above and beyond what is asked, even if its inconvenient (v. 41). That’s not necessarily practical either. But Jesus’ wisdom far exceeds the worlds and He often did the opposite of what people expected because He understood spiritual realities they were too limited to see.
That’s not to say that the Lord doesn’t utilize human wisdom- He does. But quite often, He will ask you to accomplish goals that seem illogical to your rational mind. When this occurs, be mindful that God is purposeful, wise, and absolutely sovereign. His ways are far higher than your own. And He will certainly bless you as you trust and obey Him.
