This is My Team

August 8, 2016

“Do unto others whatever you would like them to do unto you.  This is the essence of all that is taught in the law and the prophets.”
– Matthew 7:12

This is my team!  It is composed of people like me—we make it what it is.  It will be friendly—if I am.  It will have a good attitude—if I have a good attitude.  It will do great work—if I work.  It will be disciplined—if I am disciplined.  It will be a team filled with love and loyalty—if I help to fill it with these.  Therefore, with the help of God, I shall dedicate myself to the task of being all the things I want my team to be.

–Joe Gibbs, former NFL Coach and owner of Joe Gibbs Racing.

“Heavenly Father, help me to be a coach who knows the way, goes the way, and shows the way.  Teach me to follow the model of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
