BOM

I want to challenge you all to be Meek men, Abraham Lincoln said Meekness is not weakness- it is strength under control. Christ said blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the of the earth.
 
The word meekness always has an association with domesticated animals which I’ve never been crazy about, but when I think about it, an ox hooked to the plow isn’t weak but incredibly powerful because its strength is harnessed for a particular purpose.  
Commit your way to the Lord, trust in him and he will act. There are stories about prisoners in Nazi camps who were made to move heavy boulders from one end of a field to the other, only to carry them back again, many of the men were eventually driven crazy, not by the physical toll on the body but by the futility of the task. The apostle Paul says that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.
Don’t waste your strength aimlessly pushing boulders around the prison yard. Let’s stand strong as brothers for God and see what God can do with our harnessed strength.

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.Want to focus on the part about “two can defend themselves”. As men, we are constantly attacked by the world: lures of power, greed, money, lust….are everywhere. While most of us don’t like to talk about our feelings or our struggles I encourage each member of the PAX to lean on each other in times of need. Chances are one of us has dealt with your problem at some point and can help. It’s biblical in marriage and in friendships – 2 are stronger than 1. That means holding each other accountable – even when it’s hard. If we want to be true men of impact that means we sometimes have to do the hard thing and look a brother in the eye and let him know he’s making a mistake. Let’s use that to our advantage and help lift our brothers up who need it today.
