The twist is when the 2 or 3 of any suit were drawn the individual drawing the card along with the Pax to the left and right of them will bear crawl for 25 yards, sprint the remaining length of field and bear crawl back 25yards and then sprint the remaining length of field.  The remaining Pax did 15 burpees.

Devotion: “Doing the Hard Thing”

Matthew 26:39 He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”

I remember the first time Flossy introduced me to the “Deck of Death” workout.  During that workout I did not think I was going to be able to finish the work and I started looking forward to the 2 and 3 cards to get a break.  As I was preparing the workout for today I thought “How often do I do the same thing in my daily life?”  In Christ’s example in the verse above He knew what was coming and HE still said “not as I will, but as you will”.  Ooh how I fail at this so often.  My words are often “Not Your will, but mine!”.  I challenge the Pax as well as myself to take on the hard things each day with a passion and desire to honor and Glorify God!
