I’ve known him since he was in diapers. He now stands over six feet tall and weighs two hundred forty pounds. His football coach said, “I want you to tackle me.”
He replied, “I don’t want to do that.”
Coach insisted, “I’m telling you to.”
That coach ended up with fractured ribs. True story.
Lesson is be careful what you’re asking for. Some individuals pray for patience, but do you know what the Bible says?
knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
that you do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
It’s okay to ask, but consider the consequences and accept them.
Give it some thought when you ask for a hit.
