Quote of the Week
“It’s most often not the problem that is your problem, rather how you deal with the problem that causes you the most grief.” - Joyce Meyer
A Word from DistinXion
Weekly Devotional
Think about when people look at you and evaluate you. What will they think of you? How do you think of yourself? Make sure that when people need to call on you, or you are trying to establish yourself, your actions reflect the idea that you are a tremendous choice.“The king interviewed them, and among all of them, no one was found equal to Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah. So they began to serve in the king’s court. In every matter of wisdom and understanding that the king consulted them about, he found them 10 times better than all the diviner-priests and mediums in his entire kingdom.” - Daniel 1:19-20
Question 1
How can you evaluate your attitude and effort in school? On the court?

Unless the LORD builds a house, its builders labor over it in vain; unless the LORD watches over a city, the watchman stays alert in vain. — Psalm 127:1SET
Do the implications presented in this verse grab your attention? Do you labor or stay alert in vain? Perhaps you’ve heard the statement, “Where there is smoke; there must be fire.” The unconditional love of God is the “smoke” that demands a response of obedience, especially when it comes to our daily labor.God, in His infinite wisdom, allows us to choose between doing things our way or His way. There are painful lessons to be learned from laboring and staying awake in vain, without the residing power of God’s Spirit. God’s preference is for us to enter into that quiet place of rest and abide in Him. He commands us to cease striving and know that He is God!
Every coach must be built up, framed, and have a solid foundation in the Scriptures. May God, by His great grace, abound in your life powerfully as you abide and rest in His Son, Jesus Christ.

FCA Coaches Summit
Coach,
I hope this message finds you doing well. I want to personally invite you to our first FCA Coaches Summit this summer. This will be similar to a "coaching clinic" format. We will have Dr. Jeff Duke from 3D Coach as our "keynote speaker". We will also have some local coaches on hand to share ways they are able to use their respective sports to share their faith with their athletes. This is a free event with lunch provided. Please use the click on the picture below to get more info and to register! Please let me know if you have any questions!
