BOM
We all are here to get better from a physical standpoint. I love this PAX, love the diversity in ages, young and experienced! It’s the guys that we yell “RESPECT” to after they say their name and nickname that get me out of bed in the mornings and drive me. I can only hope that when I am their age one day I am doing the same. Yet, we would be fools if we stopped just at allowing them to inspire us physically. I once heard a mentor say that everyone thinks a man or #HIM is someone who is courageous and strong, showing little emotion, being hard to break, and not completely sharing their heart because vulnerability could lead to hurt or pain, BUT its actually the opposite! It takes courageousness and strength to share yourself, and open up and allow someone to know your struggles, fears, and what life has taught you. That is what Jesus did for us, and as men we are called to do the same, share our hearts with one another. My challenge to this PAX, especially younger PAX members, is to really get to know those around, especially the guys with a lot of life experience under their belt. This PAX is extremely fortunate to have so many great men, and we would be foolish if we did not seek out their guidance and mentorship. I also challenge those men, to open up and be vulnerable and share with those younger PAX members what life’s journey has had for you; the hard things, the lessons, failures, success, advice, etc. So at our next F2 event, coffeeteria or lunch, get out of your comfort zone, and seek out life with another just as Jesus has called us to do!
