As we carried the CMUs around today, we also carry burdens that weigh down our lives. The good news is that we have a God that will carry those for us and we need to remember this in the times we attempt to take care of them ourselves.

MOLESKIN
It was HOT out there today but the PAX was ready to conquer the challenge. We went to work and broke a few CMUs along the way. Way to get better men!

9 PAX came out and did WORK on a muggy Tuesday afternoon. Great, spirited mumblechatter.

BOM
P-nut read from Daniel 3 and told the story of Shadrach, Meshack and Abednego. King Nebuchadnezzar threw them into the fiery furnace because of their faith in God and their refusal to worship any pagan gods. God took care of them and didn’t allow them to be harmed in the fire. P-nut reminded the PAX that God still protects us today from hardship and strife- if we submit AND commit to Him.

P-nut took prayer requests, including Hooker’s uncle and prayers of praise for P-nut’s son, JT (ankle healing).

MOLESKIN
The PAX came ready to sweat. Proton and Woodshack arrived in similar antique Jeeps and matching F3 shirts. The other 7 members of the PAX were instantly reminded that they were in the presence of the West Knoxville “cool kids.” I think that they called one another to match vehicles and outfits.

God loves you and I do too.

BOM
Where do we find our Significance?

I have been reading a book called the true measure of a man that was introduced to us by Byonce and God has really been using it to speak to me about where I find my significance.

Significance is the belief that your life makes a lasting difference.

There is a Theory proposed in the book the men find their significance in how the most important person in his life sees him. I think that often it is easy for men to get that confused.

What do you think would happen if Christ were the most important person in our life. What if Christ were the audience that we wanted to please most? It would truly transform our lives because Jesus understands we are each of incredible value. We are of infinite worth to him. He loves us with everlasting love.

Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
