Bouncing Back No Matter the Outcome
Throughout the season there are going to be many, many peaks and valleys. No matter the outcome of games I have always loved this quote from Brad Stevens that you see here in the newsletter. It has allowed me to keep focus throughout the season on what is most important - your next game and getting your team prepared to play that next game. It is all too easy to remain focused on a great win or a tough loss and allow that to hinder your team’s development. As I said last week, you have to keep your eyes on the prize.
Our spiritual journeys are the exact same. We may have a problem at home, with finances, or an issue at school. It is easy to get caught up in the moment, or conversely, get caught up riding a high. The best coaches I have worked for and those I know are the ones who are able to make that quick turnaround as Coach Stevens says and move on regardless of the result.
Proverbs 4:5 says, “Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you.” For your team, your family, your faith...you must look forward and move on regardless of the result. Good luck this week as you continue your journeys.

Are You FAT?
READY
All
Scripture is inspired by God and is profitable for teaching, for rebuking, for
correcting, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be
complete, equipped for every good work.
SET
I was
approached the other day and asked if I was fat. Well, as a former athlete and
coach who has put on a few since his glory days, I was taken aback. “I may be
fat, but you’re ugly,” I kidded him. He laughed and responded, “Not that kind
of fat!” I was interested to see how he would get out of this one.
He told me that the “FAT” he was referring to stood for faithful, available, and teachable. He told me that we need FAT people in ministry. What a great thought! We certainly do need FAT people in every area of life. Athletes need to be FAT. Coaches need to be FAT. Pastors need to be FAT. The list goes on. We must each ask ourselves if we are FAT.
Are we faithful to our team, family, and Lord? Are we available to help, serve, or listen? Are we teachable in our sport, at school, and in our walk with Christ? Are we FAT? As for me, I looked in the mirror today, and while I am working on being less fat in stature, I hope to always be FAT in Christ. My advice: super-size it! Go large! Make it a biggie size! Be FAT for Christ! He needs us to be faithful, available, and teachable for His purpose and His glory.
GO
1. Where do you struggle in being faithful, available, and teachable?2. Have you put Jesus first in your life and become FAT in Him?
3. Where can you be more FAT in Christ?
WORKOUT
OVERTIME
Lord, I
know at times my attention is distracted away from You and I’m not as teachable
as I should be. Please soften my heart and guide my actions so that I might
become a more faithful, available, and teachable servant. Amen.
