It blesses my heart to see what they have accomplished this year. I am sorry my Josh could not have been part of the victory as he was present in defeat but this has not been part of God's plan for him.<BR/><BR/>Beyond my personal part of the team, I am blessed by your writing. Ang, you've come so far. You've gone from being a great writer to an even greater writer. It is a delight to read your words, how you pull out something great and give take-away value to a snippet of a part of your life. What a gift from a "greater hand" to quote a great writer I know.<BR/><BR/>Blessings, sisterJoyful Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10808201481346874191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30458926.post-11988124797825481602008-07-15T14:06:00.000-04:002008-07-15T14:06:00.000-04:00Thank you Lifedancegirl, for sharing how this post...Thank you Lifedancegirl, for sharing how this post blessed you.

There is much in your post for me to apply on a spiritual level. <BR/><BR/>"The biggest change I see is that they are comfortable with who they are and what they came to do." When I am comfortable with who I am and what I am to do then I too am sucessful at doing what I was gifted to do. "He sees what these boys have to give, what’s been gifted into them by a greater Hand and he does the job of digging it out and shaping it into the visible talent it was meant to be." God has used others as tools in His hand to do this in my life. (Belinda you have been one of those tools)"pouring in the words that the boys need to hear, building up, affirming his belief in who they are and what they can do." God's Word builds me up, affirming His belief in who I am and what I can do.Deborah Antoniohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582177172366836366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30458926.post-58885161443693494262008-07-14T23:59:00.000-04:002008-07-14T23:59:00.000-04:00"This was their first year together.

A group of gangly, growing, eight and under boys learning to pass well and play their positions instead of chasing that black and white ball around the field like a bunch of puppies on a squirrel."<BR/><BR/>What perfect imagery. I love this post, Ang. It's your best one yet. And the scripture... what a PERFECT fit. And the message! Layer upon layer of truth, leaving much for us to chew on.
