So we lost our game today. It was a tough game, but we came up a little on the short end. Unfortunately, I got hurt in the game, so I will be missing the next month or so. I landed on a girls foot, and ended up fracturing my foot. I should be good to go in a few weeks. My foot is in a cast for the next month, and then if my bone is healed, I will be able to start therapy and hopefully return to the court in time for the season!
God is good in the "good times" and the "bad times"!!! I thought the devotional below was great for today!!!
September 22nd
TRUST ME AND REFUSE TO WORRY, for I am your Strength and Song. You are feeling wobbly this morning, looking at difficult times looming ahead, measuring them against your own strength. However, they are not today’s tasks—or even tomorrow’s. So leave them in the future and come home to the present, where you will find Me waiting for you. Since I am your Strength, I can empower you to handle each task as it comes. Because I am your Song, I can give you Joy as you work alongside Me.
Keep bringing your mind back to the present moment. Among all My creatures, only humans can anticipate future events. This ability is a blessing, but it becomes a curse whenever it is misused. If you use our magnificent mind to worry about tomorrow, you cloak yourself in dark unbelief. However, when the hope of heaven fills your thoughts, the Light of My Presence envelops you. Though heaven is future, it is also present tense. As you walk in the Light with Me, you have one foot on earth and one foot in heaven.
“The Lord is my strength and my song; he has given me victory. This is my God, and I will praise him—my father’s God, and I will exalt him!” Exodus 15:2
“Let us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise.” Hebrews 10:23
Have a great night! Tomorrow we play Fenerbahce at 4:00 or 4:30. You can follow live stats again if you want to :)
