Faith
Faith.. is like the NBA, the National Basketball Association.
The Bible is the players guide, the Lord is our coach and we are the players.
Everything the coach wants to explain to us is written in the guide. The intention of that guide is that the players go into the rules of the game. So that they don't accidentally come up with a hockey stick instead of a basketball.
If the common target is not known by the players then they will never score. So pay attention when they are on practice and explain the differences between a personal foul and a flagrant foul.
When we are playing the game, we can't talk to the coach. We are on our own. But when a time-out is called, that is the time we can talk to him. In this case it is prayer.
Like a coach says: 'we are going to watch a dangerous-situation in the game.' It's preventive. It is to prepare for the coming games, to evaluate the games and to learn from mistakes that are made. And the most important: to enjoy the wonderful scores!
Basketball is a team sport. Faith is too: 'Together you are going for the championship.' In this case, the aureole.
It's not only about the awards and the honoring.
It is also about the game itself, which means living your life.
'Fair-play' is the motto of the Christian coach Jesus Christ.
How do you play?
