BOM
Character vs. Reputation

“Character is the distinctive qualities that make a man who he truly is deep down inside. Your character is made up of all the qualities that have been deeply ingrained in your mind and spirit. It is your character that determines how you respond to life’s challenges and irritations, to both your victories and defeats. Your reputation is what others think of you; your character is what you truly are. Reputations can be manipulated; character can only be developed. While you have some control over how others see you, you have total control over your true character. The specific character traits that you develop, and live by, determine what kind of man you are.”
– Bohdi Sanders, Men of the Code: Living as a Superior Man

Wearing the F3 means something.  It means you are CHOOSING to be a man who pursues more than the status quo.  That you ACCEPT responsibility to REJECT passivity and LEAD.  You live by a code, I am Third…God, Others, Me.  Character is built through adversity.  Each morning we get out and work hard pushing ourselves and each other to get better physically, mentally and spiritually.  With each workout our character is shaped a little more.

“Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.”
Romans 8:3-5

MOLESKIN
It was chilly, breezy morning, but we kept moving.  We carried rocks, ran hills, bear crawled, did burpees…all giving 100% with a smile.  It was an honor and blessing to lead this morning.  And just think…we get to do it all again next week!

WORD
Intensity is important, but for short duration.  Forget the hour long meetings, hour long back-breaker workouts – strive for 10-20 minutes of high intensity every hour and make those moments count.  Do this in your “service” – to God, country, family, friends, and service for those who you don’t know, and yourself.

After reading the Devotional of the Life of an Undaunted Man, it hit me. I challenge myself to change

myself everyday physically. During hard work outs, I figure out ways to keep pushing and not quitting.

Well, with the Undaunted Man devo, it talks about balance of Physical, Mental and Spiritual. I am weak

in the Spiritual aspect of my life. With distractions of everyday living in the physical world, I don’t think

about my spirituality and focus on God. I need to be able to push through those distractions and work

on my Spiritual side. F3 has tremendously helped in me in this aspect as the Knoxville Pax has all HIMs

that I look to for spiritual guidance. SPECIAL Thanks to Capn Crunch for challening me/inviting me to the

21 day Undaunted man Devotional!

Hebrews 12:1-13

“…Run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus, the founder and perfecter of our faith…” Head into the rest of your day joyful that you are justified by Jesus, but don’t forget the 3 rd F. Physical fitness is valuable, but faith and godliness are of higher value. Work on becoming the image of God (through His Grace) just like you got out of bed this morning to work on your physical fitness.

The PAX did a great job this morning ensuring that no man got left behind, and everyone finished strong.
