Last night our high school girls' basketball team played in their first game of the Regional Tournament. We played Ryan (OK). The Ryan girls set a great example....probably a tradition they've had for the whole season, if not for years.
As the two teams gathered in a circle right before the game, one of the girls prayed for the teams and the game. The words were not clear to us in the stands, but the message to each of us was certainly clear!
Thank you, Ryan Cowgirls, for the example you are setting for others! May we have the courage to use our lives in a way that sets an example to others, as well. To God be the glory in all that we do and in all that we say!
Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6
I saw that in your fb photos and wondered. Kinda like what the YMCA teaches the kids to do before games!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great show of faith and sportsmanship as well. Nice seeing both teams united in prayer.
