Faithfulness Take Two

Here it is again...another reminder of the Lord's faithfulness to me when I see it not. I recently have been stressing over the fact the I lost around 10+ hours of work between the fall and the spring. At times it was sadness over the change and other times (sad to say, but truly the majority) it was doubting what God has provided me (read-sin). The crazy thing is I already pointed out to myself multiple times, that my schedule fit together in such a way that could only be explained as a blessing from the Lord and I was still questioning what he provided.

So now I write, saying yet again, the Lord provides (please remember self). I now have most of those hours back and am blessed to see into the lives of two more dear families, who love the Lord and want to raise their children to love the Lord as well. This is such an undeserved blessing, especially when I see how much I didn't trust God to provide.

Lord, Help my unbelief and thank you for all that you have provided for me.

My Team

Here's the story: to me there is only one team that places sports. I love my team. It's the team that as a ten year old I made homemade posters for (back in the day of Herb Haygood, Tyrell Dortch, TJ Duckett, Little John Flowers, Jeff Smoker). It's the team that hung in my room my whole life (I hung up any and all posters I could get my hands on). It's the team, whose stadium I learned football in (thanks to my father who took me and answered all my silly questions). It's the team that I have stood in the beating sun, the freezing snow and the pouring rain for (I would refuse to leave the game before the time read 0:00). It's Michigan State University. I've never cared, at the end of the day, whether my boys in green, earn a L or a W. I love them the same. Now I am not sure whether that really makes sense, but it's true.

I am watching them right now and it's breaking my heart...not that they are losing (though we really ARE). I hate that they keep getting hurt, I almost want to start a fight with both Alabama's Offensive and Defensive lines...I'll hold back though. I also am hating the "fans" that don't want to watch my team lose or just the people that talk bad about State (I always have hated those people). Any ways I have enjoyed this season and I'll be back next year to watch my Spartans play some football, in the mean time I'll watch Izzo's boys.
