COACHING TOUR 2006


“But seek first His Kingdom and His righteousness and all this things will be given to you as well.” Mathew 6:33
It was impossible not no meditate on this verse every day during those 5 weeks of soccer camps, since the kids had to memorize it, meaning they would say it over and over again. I could only stay for two weeks, but God took care of it all by seeking Him first! Without saying a word a coach approached me and offered to support me for the rest of the weeks. Jesus sure knows how to make his Word come alive in our lives.

“Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.” Galatians 6:2
What a great picture of the unity in the body of Christ! How are we to be salt and light? In the way we love one another, not only in words but also in actions. Someone is watching you always, and kids not only watch, but imitate, they embrace and follow, that’s why they are the example Jesus sets for us, by becoming like children. So it was amazing to see their joy increase and develop more Christ-like attitudes as a result of them knowing Jesus better and noticing the harmony in the coaches, and in the teams.
