I am a final four junkie! There I confessed it! Last night I watched an amazing game between Kansas and Memphis. Down by 9 points with just at short time left, Kansas came back and hit a long 3 pointer with just over 2 seconds left to tie the game and then win in overtime. It was even more amazing because, Kansas and been missing 3 point shots all night long. Their shooting percentage from beyond the arch was around 25 %, yet they made one when they needed it.
Somewhere in this outstanding game there maybe lessons to be learned.
1. Never give up!
2. Courage in the face of defeat!
3. The power of team and community!
4. Always believe in yourself!
5. It ain't over till its over!
6. You fill in the blank with your own idea ____________.
They say sport imitates life, and maybe it does. If that is the case then, the next time, I come up against what seems like an impossible task, I want to turn to God and trust Him by faith and then step back and drain the 3, so to speak! I want to trust in God and the rest of the team of disciples I play with. I want to believe in the power of God to do miracles, even when defeat looks certain! I want to remember it ain't over, because God is God!
Congratulations to both Memphis and Kansas for one of the most exciting games ever, and for some life lessons that I needed to be reminded of!
Revrick!
