Facing The Giants!
hey guys, a note to encourage all of us.
as i watched "Facing The Giants" on my ipod today, i felt that God is really speaking to me. In life we all have giants that tear, pin or push us down, but God allow it to happen so that He can show how great and mighty is He. One phrase i heard on the movie when David's father was talking to him and this was what David asked: "why did God made me so small and weak?" and this was his father's reply: "to show how Great and Mighty is He." When i heard that it just boost me! now i know why God have made me this way, so that he can show how Great and Mighty is He! and i never realised it!
And before i started off the basketball game today, i was telling God to help us and whether we win or lose, or how good or bad i play in this game, i'll still praise you. And God indeed have us to pull us through. Even though we lost, they are the giants for us in this game, they are experienced, big in size and this was their 6th season. The first time we played against them, we lost close to about 50 pts, but when we faced them today, the score was 50-71, we lost only 21 pts! 21 pts! and i believe this was God helping us because most of their players are not here and the strongest one is not there too. We are outnumbered with 6 players to 9 players, its the same when Shirlon Eagles against the oppositing team with Shirlon players at 32 and the oppositing at 85. It was indeed a true miracle at the end when we lost with a gap of 21 pts.
And from this, i have a dream. Which i believe God can use all of us and to be the true Overcomer of Giants. My dream was to have a sports group form from our cell, with the talents and gifts God have given us, we must not let it go to waste, if not, God will take it away. We have basketball, badminton, soccer, bowling etc, let us all use this as a platform for God to be shown in our lives and where He can be make known to all.
I hope this note of mine will encourage all of us. =D God bless!
