How often have you invited someone to share in your joy? I know I personally share great books, movies, healthy food and much more when I feel moved and inspired. I have invited more people than I can remember to run a Spartan race and I am excited to announce, I found some takers. My daughter and her boyfriend will be joining me in Minnesota to race their first Spartan this weekend! OO-RAH!
Speaking of invitations, I heard a great homily on Sunday. The priest challenged us to invite others not only to things and events, but invite others to what moves us each and every moment of our life, Jesus Christ. So I am inviting you with the same enthusiasm as I have when I invite you to a Spartan race. Sign up today to visit Him in His house or in prayer. OO-RAH! What does OO-RAH mean anyway? Why do marines say it so often and with such passion? I decided if I am going to spout it I better know what I am spouting! Well I just happen to find the top 10 list of possible meanings. 1. I am a Marine 2. I enthusiastically accept your message 3. I am excited to be here. 4. Pleased to make your acquaintance. 5. What you ask of me , I will not only do, I will in a manner befitting a Marine. 6. I expect good things out of you. 7. Good job. 8.I am not supposed to be motivated about performing this task, but I will force myself to express excitement for the benefit of my fellow Marines and to tactfully annoy my superiors who gave me the task. 9. I love being a Marine. 10. I am about to destroy something. After learning the meaning of OO-RAH it got me thinking??? I bet the man responsible for creating this great word......is a...... "man of few words"! "Feel the Rush"
