19 Pax gathered this morning to help YHC and Happy Trees celebrate one year of F3.A little over a year ago YHC was struggling with gettIng out of the rut of being tired all of the time, eating bad and feeling bad about himself. YHC had lost his father not long before, another victim of unhealthy lifestyle and a heredity of heart disease.
One year.
In a years time YHC ran his first mile distance (almost killed me) and his first half-marathon distance (almost killed me). Physically-#F3counts.
In a years time YHC has gained confidence from the encouragement and the many pushes of his new brothers. Confidence to step up and lead, confidence to do bold new things and to endeavor to really live out each day, instead of just waiting for it to be over. Mentally-#F3counts.
In a years time YHC has been exhorted to put himself 3rd, to be willing to give up his life for his brothers (and sisters) and to come alongside them and to encourage them as they have encouraged YHC. Spiritually- #F3counts.
Thanks for the push brothers! And thanks again Puck, for the EH!
To God be the glory Amen!

HT’s Devo:
John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
Laying down your life for your friends doesn’t have to mean dying for someone you love. It can also mean giving your time to a brother or sister in need of it. Put your life on hold to reach out to Others and be there for your friends.
