The Rubik’s Cube

It was a great day at Folsom this morning. We celebrated Pearl Jam’s birthday by wearing silly birthday hats and enjoying our time together.  Also an older gentleman and his dog just hung out with us for the work out. He was sitting there reading a book or magazine. I can not imagine what is going through his head as the mumble chatter was strong this morning especially with Allen Tate and Sister Act.

The Rubik’s cube today represented our lives for those of us that are Christians. We are all mixed up and not in order. We pray, repent, and ask for forgiveness and it is always provide. The time it takes for us to ask for forgiveness may vary, but we are always set anew if we repent.  We then sin, get everything mix up again and repeat the cycle.  We need to always continue to get better,  be better and strive to be like Jesus.  We will never achieve perfection, but we can not stop trying.  As Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians , “Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.”

John 1:9 – “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”

A special thanks goes to Windmill from F3 Burlington. He was a pleasure to meet and we hope to see him again next time that he is in town.
