God Transforming my Life

New adventures in my life have been amazing. God is truly transforming my life in ways I could never have imagined. He is placing things on my heart that I have never even though about.
I have always had a passion for sports and training individuals to become better athletes. God has used athletics in many areas to bless my life and to allow His gospel to be spread.
God is now also placing women on my heart and pushing me to invest in the lives of the women around me. I have learned so much this semester from the women around me and have been blessed to open up to them. God has called me to open up about me life and share the blessing and struggles with these ladies. I have had so many opportunities to share what Chirst is doing in my life with them.
About two weekends ago I attened a sports conference up in Northern Greece where I was invited to play in a sports tournament. This is a huge conference in Greece where all the churches come together to play sports and worship God. I played with a soccer and volleyball team and through this God was teaching me humility. I have never really played soccer and really do not know much about it but God was using this time to teach me many lessons. I have never been on a team and not been one of the top players; and never have I had to sit the bench until that weekend. I was playing next to a girl who played for the national team here in Greece. I learned a lot about soccer and got a lot better but was not a starter by no means. It was so hard to stand on the side and watch my team play and through this time God was continuing to show me what is truly important in my life. I love sports but that does not get me into eternality with my Savior. God has to be my focus and many times in life He came after sports. I have been learning who to use sports to glorify Him and to also stay focused on Him.
God has also been using His word to transform my life. I am working on taking what I have read and learned about the Bible and write it on the tablets of my heart. Once you take the word and place it in your heart then God can use it to combat Satan in your life and also to encourage yourself and others.
Praise God for His redempitve work and continual love.
