Easily one of my proudest accomplishments. I was so blessed to even have an opportunity to go to college. Much less to have earned a degree from somewhere like PSU, not a bad thing I can say about it. On to Grad school, and into my second semester of earning my MBA. Time to add a new item to the list.
God Bless all
Ok, so two weeks back, I was so blessed I got to go to Orlando to play in a football tournament. Stayed in a really nice house with my friends and teammates. Well, a recurring theme was Brandon, Marc, and myself were all the late night clique if you will. We were always the last to bed, the nights we even went to bed that is. I had the privelage of talking to them, and hearing a side of there virtues I never knew, and in the process, got to convey and hopefully help through those virtues which I hold as my own. On the Friday night to Saturday morning, we had a conversation so captivating, that we did not go to sleep prior to our football game that was 8 am Saturday. This did not bode well for our game, but it do so for well being I would say. I had one of the best 4 hours of conversing on faith, my Lord, and even everyones struggles, and devotions to such. Again, what an awesome moment of Grace that was as the Lord surely put us in those situations, at those particular times for a reason. All praise and Glory are His.
Personal stats are not a real motivator for me. However, if I am not throwing interceptions, I know its directly resulting in posative things for my team, which does motivate me.
For the season and playoff’s, I threw 2 total interceptions. A touchdown to interception ratio of 27/2 aint bad, I’ll def. thank the Lord for blessing my game in that regard. Goal achieved. Room for improvement exists though, I want 1 interception thrown next season and NONE in the playoffs.
Well, I fell short of my 30 td throws. I threw 2 last week in our championship loss. 27 throwing, and 34 all purpose touchdowns in 8 regular season games and 2 playoffs… New season starts 1-25-06 so I’ll start this goal over again then. Since I had 34 all purpose, I wanna improve on that, so the bar is raised to 40 all-purpose td’s and 30 of them throwing, we’ll see what happens.
Ok, so I have one game left in the season, and that is the championship game this Wednesday. We won our game last week, I tossed 3 td’s, and caught another one. That brings the total to 25 total td throws, and 32 all purpose td’s. So I haven’t thrown 30 td’s, but I have one more game to do so. Over 30 all purpose aint bad, though I’d give every single one of them up for a win next week. We’ll see what happens…
I have definitely found great solace in prayer. So with regards to this goal, I’ll wait till more time has elapsed, but so far, God’s blessed me with the persistence I need to faithfully serve in prayer.
For me, it was not worth it. I would have had to give up too much. For someone stretched a little less than I, go for it.
I was offered a position on the team I tried out for… however it would have required me quitting football, and hockey for my team with my friends…. sorry, blood runs thicker then water bra’
In the past 4 games I have throw 9 more touchdowns, and ran for 3…. Ok, so I’m not progressing as vast as I set the bar. But still, I got the playoffs, so thats 22 td throws, and 6 rushing td’s. 28 total is not too bad, but I’ll get my 30 throwing, if we make it to the finals, we will play at least three playoff games… Oh yea, I’ll get it.
I have since played 2 more games, and have another this Wednesday. I had 2 td throws in our third game, and 4 in our fourth. Bringing makes it 13 td throws, and 16 total td’s. Only 4 more regular season games to get the rest of my scores, I thought it was a 10 game season!
I’m an avid advocate of the Bible and its teachings, but man, forgiving is rough sometimes. God help me with this one…
I feel like such a sell out… but when you play sports and wear a helmet for them, the sweaty hair in my eyes was killing me!!! I’m such a sell out…...
I took Zeb to church Sunday, his first real church experience. And witnessed to Adam and Dianne as well. 3 down, but I wont limit myself to 20. That is the true essence of God’s grace there. If you read this and wanna talk about the subject matter, feel free to get in touch.
2 games, and seven (7) touchdown passes later, I have 8 games to throw 23 more touchdowns. I like my chances..
Seth got his touchdown as thats all he wanted was 1 touchdown thing season. It came in last weeks Tie vs. Norwin. Gratz’ Seth
Seth is my big tight end. He is humble and a hard worker. Above all, he is a really dedicated, good hearted individual. I have to throw him a touchdown this year.
Though I just listed this as something I want to do, I just recently accomplished this last semester. However, its so important to me, that having it can serve as motivation to myself and others, is reason enough to list it.
A person can pray only when they need something, I do this at times, and I feel selfish. Prayer should be offered in thanks for His grace thats shown upon us with each breath we take. I am one among many I suspect who wishes to pray regularly for the good, bad, and everything in between. Godspeed with this.
