BULLET THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK
- Always good to know you’re not the only one frustrated with a specific thing going on in life. It’s interesting to hear others having the same frustration – it’s helpful to know you’re not alone.
- I’m always encouraged when parents follow what they say and make kids bear the consequences set out.
- Praying hard for the community I live in.
- Browns – not much to say. I’ve read the script, and it usually ends the way it did yesterday.
- Yankees – rarely am I confident of the Yankees, but they split in Baltimore this weekend and did what they had to do. Their rotation is not great right now, but I think they’ll get enough offense to win a playoff spot.
- The Wild Card rule in baseball is going to make the end to this season scintillating.
- Training is going well and I’m getting excited about the Akron race. Running the full marathon with Josh Miller, our church’s youth director. It will be Josh’s first full marathon.
- I am excited that so far a good chunk of money has come in for the cause I’m running for in November. Full update within the next week or two.
- God – do something! And let me give you the glory so I won’t feel like I have to take credit myself.
