How has everyone's week been? It is hard to believe another week has gone by. This week didn't start out to great for me as I was sick, but I am feeling a lot better now :)!! Today was a great day. We practiced this afternoon and then I went and got some dinner with one of my teammates.
Tomorrow we head to Alanya. We will play on Sunday at 2:00 p.m.
I hope to blog tomorrow, but I am not sure how the hotel situation will be. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend :)

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.— Ephesians 4:29 (NIV)
Thoughts on Today's Verse...We can use our words to be cute. We can use our words to appear impressive. We can use our words to win arguments. We can use our words to defend ourselves. We can use our words to lie and distort. We can use our words to do many things, but God wants us to use our words to bless. So when we speak, if our words do not bless and benefit those to whom we direct them, then we are to simply not say anything. Grandma was right: "If you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all."
My Utmost For His Highest:
Your mind is the greatest gift God has given you and it ought to be devoted entirely to Him. You should seek to be “bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ . . .” (2 Corinthians 10:5). This will be one of the greatest assets of your faith when a time of trial comes, because then your faith and the Spirit of God will work together. When you have thoughts and ideas that are worthy of credit to God, learn to compare and associate them with all that happens in nature-the rising and the setting of the sun, the shining of the moon and the stars, and the changing of the seasons. You will begin to see that your thoughts are from God as well, and your mind will no longer be at the mercy of your impulsive thinking, but will always be used in service to God.
Our Daily Bread:
When we’re thankful, we want to share what God has done.
I love to tell the story,
For some have never heard
The message of salvation
From God’s own holy Word. —Hankey
There’s no better news than the gospel— spread the word!
