COT
Read John 14:1: Peace I leave with you, my peace I give you; not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled neither let it be afraid. Talked about troubles, stress, and worry. We all have the tendency as human beings to worry and have high anxiety at times, especially during times of stress at work, home, during Pandemic, etc. Give those worries to God. Pray during those times that you may think and act with your heart and leave the worries in your mind behind for God to handle. Asked PAX a question: Will this situation I am worrying about matter in a week, a month, a year? If the answer is no, then stop and pray to God to guide you through the worries with peace and comfort.

The MC was wonderful for today’s beatdown!
From what I gathered: Sousa met his now-wife at a Toga party in which there was a goat eating bed posts and sheets. After this, he subsequently lived in a barn on a king-sized bed full of Hay. At some point, the goat turned into a baby lamb that lived inside with his in-laws. It was then determined that Sousa uses a washing machine to wash his box spring (unsure how that works). Oh, and his mother in law is not named Mary so Mary and the Little Lamb didn’t work, however, his father in law is Wendell. Story took a weird turn (if that’s possible) after that discussion began.
It was determined that some of the musical choices were not politically correct, subsequently followed by one PAX saying “Great music today”. Not sure what that means in the grand scheme of things, but worth nothing.
Uncle Joe busted out his fur underwear for the beatdown, fortunately, we took him at his word and no proof was necessary. Did I mention it was cold, like 50 degrees colder than the high two days ago cold?
Sousa was asked what raves were like now since he was the youngest PAX. He followed this up with “the movie theater in East Ridge?” Additionally, he noted that the closest thing he got to a rave was a Church gathering. Reach out to Sousa if you are looking for a new church….
