Be a leader.
I was challenged to be the same kind of leader off the soccer field as I am on the soccer field. Naturally, on the soccer field I am loud, intense, inspiring, passionate, and full of joy. This is a result of devoting practically all of my life to the game of soccer. I know soccer inside and out, not to say I don't have anything to learn.
Off the soccer field, I can have a different style of leadership than on the field. I have been compartmentalizing my life. What if I meshed them together. I knew soccer by playing soccer, watching soccer, coaching soccer, reading soccer. Let's put this in living a Christ life and leading others to do the same. I will always learn more through Christ, but if I model Christ, watch Christ, teach Christ, read about Christ most certainly I will be able to lead a Christ life and have the confidence to bring others with me.
My prayer is a heart to know Christ, the courage to step in faith to stand firm in his name. I like to avoid conflict off the soccer field, but love the contact in soccer. May in grace I change that to honor Christ as a MAN of God. I don't mean to be a bible pusher but a tenacious man living firm in his Faith in Christ.
1 Thess 2:8
