COT

I shared the story of Shrek the sheep. Shrek got away from his shepherd and lived alone in caves and the forest for six years. During those 6 years he became thick with wool. When he returned to his shepherd, a professional sheared Shrek’s thick wool coat and it weighed 60lbs. A normal sheep will produce 10 to 15lbs of wool. By going away from the shepherd Shrek carried a burden that was 5 to 6 times what would have had to carry.

Shrek paints a very important picture for our relationship with God. If we turn to the father he will carry our burdens for us, as is described in Matthew chapter 11. In F3 we have a support system of fellow PAX that will share our burdens as well.

Matthew 11:28-30 “Come all to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”


Moleskin

“I hate ladders” by someone at the very beginning of The Thang.
“I thought he said mosey not sprint” by someone on the mosey warm up lap!
There were several “I hate burpees!” from the pax.
“If we forget whether we were on 9 or 10 burpees, should we do the extra one just in case?” — Backpew
“Of course you should!” — Clothespin
