Overnight rain couldn’t keep 16 PAX from coming out and enjoying a baseball conditioning style workout. YHC is a huge baseball fan and with the Playoffs upon us I figured we needed a workout on the diamond.
The theme of the day was embracing our weaknesses. Over the last 4+ months, I have had a physical transformation. As exciting as that was, the physical transformation only opened my eyes to other weaknesses that I had in my life. As men, our tendency is to hide or avoid weaknesses. My challenge to you today is to embrace that weakness because it can make you stronger. As you will see with the closing passage, even the Apostle Paul had to learn this valuable lesson.

2 Corinthians 12:9-10
9 But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
I am beyond thankful for you men. Have a great day!
