Congrats Kaylon! This was Kaylon's first Helmet ever! It is so good when one of the guys wins their first Helmet! Dylan was there at the end with Kaylon, but the guys were determined to get Kaylon his first Helmet. It is amazing how the Helmets have been so spread out this year.
This week we played Mike 23 for the second and last time of the year! It is interesting how the scores rise and fall after each mini-game. At one point Jason's team had a big lead, and then it was Ryley's team that had the big lead. The problem with having the lead is, that the other three teams pick on the team with the lead. In the end, it was Keegan and Dane's team that won Mike 23! They spent most of the game in third or fourth place, but pulled out the win on the last round!
MIKE 23 FINAL SCORES
Keegan's team - (6)
Jason's team - (5)
Ryley's team - (0)
Jakob's team - (-3)
In the Bible study our topic was "The God of all Comfort".
2 Corinthians 1:3-7 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort.
This passage calls God, "the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort. Isn't this the kind of God that we need? Isn't this the kind of God that we should get to know? God comforts us in all of our troubles, whether big or small!
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
Romans 8:18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
Paul tells us that God will comfort us in all our troubles, and then he tells us that our present sufferings are not worth comparing to the eternal glory that will revealed in us! He is telling us that our temporary pain will totally be worth what we will gain in eternity! We should not forget, that God will be with us through the storms of life! He has not left us alone on this earth to figure things out on our own!
It is Winterslam 12 (Boxing) this week at Btln! (6:45-9:00 p.m.) Wednesday, February 1st
