P-nut referenced 2 Corinthians 1:1-11.  Paul wrote about how suffering brings about a closer walk with Jesus, and through adversity we endure and can be an example to others.  Remember to celebrate through your suffering and to we aware when your brothers are struggling.  Pick them up.  Let’s get better- together.

P-nut prayed us out.  Special mention of Bandwagon’s back pain and Cap’n Crunch and his all-nite RUCK run.

MOLESKIN
2.94 total miles and a multitude of squats, merkins and burpees.  Crawdad brought his usual “A” game with the mumblechatter and kept the PAX entertained.  T-claps to Proton for noticing that an FNG had Velcro on their shoes (hence the new name “Velcro”).  Nice to have a total of 4 FNG’s this Saturday.

God bless.

14 PAX embraced the SUCK on a humid June Saturday. Lots of good mumblechatter and energy.

BOM
P-nut read from Galatians 6:2. He encouraged us all to bear one another’s burdens. We all have obstacles and troubles in life, and it’s important to share your burdens with other men. Let’s encourage one another.

P-nut took prayer requests, including Crawdad’s daughter Danielle (strep throat) and prayers for Edit’s safe completion of a triathlon event in Chattanooga this weekend.

MOLESKIN
It was energizing to see Jump Around back in town. We are grateful for two new PAX members (Buc and Kees) for posting three times in their first week with F3 (T-claps). Abscess is back and stronger than ever. Cap’n Crucnh showed all of us up by running 2.5 miles prior to the post. Woodshack invited an FNG (Mirror) and then didn’t post. From henceforth when this situation occurs (invitation extended without the host showing up), we will refer to this as “Woodshacking.”

It was a great, spirited day at the Asylum.

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.
