Leaders must serve others…

“But among you it will be different. Whoever wants to be a leader among you must be a servant, and whoever wants to be first among you must become your slave. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve others and give his life as a ransom for so many.” Matthew 20:26-28

I am extremely thankful to be a part of this group. I was lured in by the first F Fitness, but the third F Faith is was what I needed, and the second F Fellowship was the glue that kept me coming back.

F3 is such a great organization to be a part of. You guys challenge me on and off the court! Your workouts are hard (sometimes CSAUP), but the challenges you lay down at the end, your words, your actions, your prayers, that’s where the magic is!!

You challenge me to be a better man. To be a better husband, a better father, a better leader in my home and in my community. To serve others and be what God has called us to do.

I’ve got a lot of room for improvement, but I want to thank you for the push!!

I encourage you to look for opportunities to serve : things like Work Day, volunteering at the homeless shelter, donating blood, etc

MOLESKIN:
Insert any personal comments, notes, devotion content, etc.
