BOM:
We were challenged by Mayberry on his last BOM to put ourselves 3rd. God, Friends/Family, and then us. 2 Things we can do to make small steps towards that are: 1. Carve out the first 5 minutes of your day to be with the Sky-Q. Ask God, What is it that you would have me do for you today? 2. Be present in the moment. Be in the conversation and not lost in your own thoughts.

Moleskin:
This was a challenging workout for me to lead. My comfort zone lies in lifting CMU’s! I wanted to lead a workout beyond my capacity. With the support of the PAX we managed to get some pretty good work in and complete on time. Our thoughts and prayers are with the PAX that couldn’t be with us today.

BOM:

Shared my Testimony with the PAX. “No one after lighting a lamp covers it up with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. Luke 8:16

Walking in faith can be scary at times, but it is through faith where we will grow and become the HIM’s we were meant to be through the Sky-Q.

Moleskin: We’re still missing the shovel flag, Frosty? We woke up to a beautiful Florida this morning, oddly warm and windy. We finished up right before the downpour. P-Nut was lobbying for a 25 minute show, but we ran over and used every minute. The Bobby Brick Hurley’s were a real crowd please’r and we found the bricks a new home. Nobody walked out with any injuries that they didn’t walk in with, so that’s good. Great day to be a part of this PAX.

Count-Off and Name-O-Rama:

BOM:
P-nut related how our run down Route 66 was an analogy to traveling life’s path. We have distractions along the way, but we need to remember the words of Jesus in Luke 9…and how we must be willing to sacrifice everything in order to truly follow Him.

P-nut then prayed us out- including a prayer request for Pfieffer’s grandfather and relief from holiday stress…especially that stress placed on our wives.

Moleskin:

A group of brave souls with questionable judgment participated in a RUCK/run prior to the beat-down. All PAX were treated to 3 miles and a buffet of burpees, squats and merkins. Spirits were high and the mumblechatter was strong. Great morning at the Pound.

Respectfully submitted,

P-Nut

The Least of These
– yesterday I was meeting someone for breakfast and as I walked in the Cracker Barrel there was a man who was obviously homeless wandering around looking for a place to be seated. He looked at me as if to approach me and then turned away. A few minutes later a waitress had him seated, she was very frustrated, and he began to look at the menu. Without thinking much I asked my waitress if they would feed him and let me pay for it.

Later I was reflecting on how simply and easily that came to do a good work in chair for someone who is destitute. As I was in the middle of patting myself on the back, I recalled the scripture Jesus talking about doing things for “the least of these.”

The next moment feel the Lord saying to me “Good job. That came very naturally and it should. But why is it so hard for you to care for people that you know?”

Your little brother who can’t seem to figure out life. Your boss or coworker who drives you insane. That life-sucking remora that you always seem to run into after church. Your spouse when they are getting on your nerves.

Can you show as much compassion and grace to them that you would show to a homeless man you’ll never see again?

The least of these isn’t just the destitute, it’s also those not experiencing the love of Jesus. Show them that love

Moleskin:

It was downright cold today. The men pushed hard and pushed each other and got better together. We stayed in a fairly tight pack today which was great. With a really broad range of fitness levels and everyone got a good beat down. Nice work gentlemen
