Rucking! It’s another one of those things I’ve never done until one year ago... now I do it every week!!! #airassault #101stairborne . Today’s ruck was 8 miles at an average pace of 13:38 (Army standard is 15) with a 36 pound ruck. . My failure last week was a punch in the throat!!! 👊🏼👊🏽👊🏿 I’m training for a goal and do not want to fall short! . Listen... don’t let failure be the last chapter of your story!!! Let the FAILURE FUEL the FIRE that drives you. #failurefuelssuccess . Two favorite Proverbs of mine right now are: “The godly may trip seven times, but THEY WILL GET UP AGAIN. But one disaster is enough to overthrow the wicked.” (Proverbs 24:16 NLT) . “GOOD PLANNING and HARD WORK lead to PROSPERITY, but hasty shortcuts lead to poverty.” ‭‭(Proverbs‬ ‭21:5‬ ‭NLT‬‬) . You’re going to fail. When you do... GET UP! GET A PLAN! WORK THE PLAN HARD! . Let’s get after it!!!!

5 years ago I sat down with my friend, Quinest, in front of our church and we talked about race. . It was a two week conversation. . It was honest... insightful... hopeful... . I’ve posted these two talks on my Facebook page - Facebook.com/thepaulpeterson

Another Saturday... another ruck! . Mrs Peterson jogged alongside me while I rucked. Today’s pack was 36 lb... average pace per mile was 13:26... and the terrain was the Air Assault trail (a nice little hill to spice things up). . Training like this is good for our souls, marriage, and bodies! I LOVE this girl and I LOVE the Army!!! . As I ran I experienced JOY... because I can run. A few months ago I couldn’t straighten my leg... so I had knee surgery. I remember recovery... the first time I WALKED four miles... I was so excited!!! Now I can run... and I am GRATEFUL!!! #mrspetersonmakesthemilesbetter #army #chaplain

2 homeless, unemployed men sitting on a bench. . The first guy said, “The reason I’m here is because I REFUSED TO LISTEN TO ANYONE.” . The second guy responded, “The reason I’m here is because I LISTENED TO EVERYONE.” . Listen and learn from others, but pick your mentors wisely... or you’ll be the third guy on the bench!

I’ve considered this for a bit and feel it way down in my belly. I HATE everything about this... from the weak cop who killed a man to the timid bystanders who ran their phones while a man was killed. . The man beneath the knee was a man... a person. He was made in the image of God. He had a mom. Sure, he did stupid stuff. Hi. My name is Paul. I’ve done stupid stuff too. . I’ve wondered... why didn’t a man step up? Why didn’t people move in? Why didn’t someone do more than take a video? . Would I have done it if I were there? Would I be willing to be tased... arrested... even shot for stepping in and stopping this? Would I sacrifice my record... my career... even my life for #georgefloyd? . I don’t know. But the thought... the phrase that keeps running through my head is, “Move your knee... or I’ll move you.” . I’m weary of weak men with cameras. Put your phone down and move somebody... save somebody... . Stop videoing fights and posting them to TMZ... be a man and STOP the cruelty. Stop being the person who records it... STOP IT! STAND UP for righteousness... BE A FORCE for mercy... justice.... . May the words of the prophet Micah guide us in these days, ““O people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.” (Micah‬ ‭6:8‬ ‭NLT‬‬) . MOVE YOUR KNEE. #georgefloyd #moveyourknee
