WHAT IS UP SIGS?!

Hey, so as some of yall might already know, I've been in a rough patch for a while, but one of my BCA pledge brothers told me this quote by Oswald Chamber that should be an encouragement to everyone.

"We are not made for the mountains, or sunrises, or for the other beautiful attractions in life- those are simply intended to be moments of inspiration. We are made for the valley and the ordinary things of life, and that is where we have to prove our stamina and strength."

Just remember that even though we were at Sigma in the awe-inspiring mountains of Colorado, a place of spiritual enrichment and relaxation, now we are back here to reality, dealing with school, new challenges to our faith, and times without a community like we had at Sigma. Guys, remember that we are called to be on mission- aka the valleys. It's where we are tested, refined, and fortefied, not to mention it's where we make the most impact as Sigmas and, more importantly, disciples of Christ.

"Remember how the LORD your God led you all the way in the desert these forty years, to humble you and to test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands." -Deuteronomy 8:2

Yall are stinkin awesome, and I hope I get the chance to see yall soon!

Thanks and Gig 'Em.
