YHC got his inner Avenger on and tweeted out for Agoge Assemble on this brisk October AM. With my handy dandy headlamp I picked up over the weekend to beatdown the gloom of the AO’s up here, I was setting up cones over yonder in the soccer field and was pleased to see eager PAX assembled as I came back over the hill. 7  PAX present and no FNG’s but good to see Fabio back out and the 2nd POST from Casey Kasem after his maiden POST at The Farm Saturday (the EH still works gents, he’d been in one a couple months). Was time to get this party started.

MOLESKIN:
YHC took away some inspiration from Stairway to Heaven today that I had to share with the PAX. Toting the rock up and down the hill was burdensome, tiresome, exhausting. Felt weighted down then in the midst of the workout I said this is weight of sin in our lives. Most PAX did an EC set to leave no one behind and finish up with a brother and I had PAX leave the rock and finish the EC set without their rock. During COT I shared my thoughts. Sin weighs us down. It is burdensome, tiring and exhausts us living in it. This is why we humble ourselves and confess and repent of those sins that weigh us down. We confess before the Lord and He takes those burdens away. That is why we need people in our lives. Our wife, brothers, pastors to confess our sins to and to help hold us accountable. The relief of the last set without that rock was freeing, joyful. Like when we confess our sins. And helping another brother carry his weight that last set, that is what we are called to do as brothers in Christ, to walk along side and encourage each other when carrying a load. Iron sharpening iron gents, that’s what this is about. It’s an honor to know and to walk alongside you gentlemen, AYE!
