COT:
Matthew 11:28-30
28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
So many times I pray that God would just take this burden away from me or someone I know. Jesus is saying that he wants to grab onto you and help you walk with that burden. He will make it easier to carry and we will grow through this exercise with him.

THE THANG:
To the football field. Each Pax got a card from the F3 workout deck with the remainder of the deck being chance cards. Starting at the goal line, do the exercise on the card for the reps + yard line. Then mosey to the opposite side (Bernie to get back). Goal line ->goal line -> opposite 10 -> 10-> etc until the 50 (15 second stargazer) then work back out to the goal lines.
MARY: back at the flag continued drawing from the deck doing exercise at dictated reps

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Prayers : Freefall’s mother, Guardrail looking for a new employment opportunity, son of Cardinal adapting to a new school and the still recent losses of father and grandfather, curveball’s father is having cataract surgery.

COT: There is no pride in struggling alone.
There was a town that had a large storm on the way. It was expected to produce mass flooding. News alerts for the area urged residents to evacuate. One man however choose to stay and putting his faith in God saying ‘I know the Lord will take care of me.’ The storm arrives and floods began while emergency crews swept the town and urged him to evacuate, but he stayed and said ‘I know the Lord will take care of me.’ As the town began was flooding he retreated to his upstairs and a boat came up to rescue him. He again said ‘I know that the Lord will take care of me.’ The flood waters continued to rise and the man was sitting on his roof. A helicopter comes by and begs the man leave, but he just says ‘I know the Lord will take care of me.’ Eventually the flood rises and the man perishes. The man asks God why didn’t you protect me when I put all my faith in you until death?! God replied ‘I gave you news alerts and emergency crews, I sent a boat and a helicopter, why didn’t you accept the help I provided?’
We sometimes want our answers to feel miraculous or to happen how we want them, when the real help we need is found in much more ordinary ways. We need to humble ourselves to the Lord and ask for help, but also have open eyes in the ways he provides for us.
This group is a great example of what the Lord has provided to us when we are in need. Do not struggle alone, let the group know when you are having a tough time, so that we can serve and help you through.

Rucks and Coupons

AO: shamruck
Q: Betty (Tyler Alexander) , Betty (Tyler Alexander)
PAX: Oscar Meyer (Brett Harris), Blindside (Davis Bodie), Eliza (Kevin Parrott), Ribbed (Joshua Sagraves), Betty (Tyler Alexander), Dumpster Dive, Tonka (Andrew McDonald)
FNGs: None
COUNT: 7
WARMUP:
None
THE THANG:
HIM’s set out on a ruck with normal packs but we also brought along 5 coupons (20,30,40,60,80 lbs). With 7 men we rotated coupons every 0.25 mile. 5 guys working with coupons and two guys with just their rucks. We covered 2.25 miles and there was sufficient grumbling by everyone that encountered the 80lber.
We then took a lap .44 without any coupons to speak of for recovery.

Fun was had by most, suck was embraced by all.
MARY:
No Time
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
None
COT:
Don’t let anyone outwork or out-hustle you for your dreams. We drew a parallel of certain people who will do just about anything with an end use in mind. Don’t let them work harder on their goal than you are working on yours.
