Blogging everyday is harder than I thought... I assumed I could think of something but clearly I can't. On a positive note, my room remains clean, and I did the dishes again today! Yes! Haha.
Perhaps, I shall talk about sports, more specifically Frisbee. This is my favorite sport, but maybe too much so. I think I have gotten better about being a better sport, but I definitely still struggle with it. I expect a lot of people when playing, but I've been playing so badly it's hard for me to say anything haha. Sports are fun though. It's good exercise, stress relieving, bonding time, but sometimes I do worry about at what expense. I have people tell me they have tests and stuff, and I hope they realize that the sport is not that important. Sure, I love winning, who doesn't? And when I lose, I always dang it, we could have won if we did x, y, and z. I think this is an okay attitude, but I hope that no one over values the sport. I am definitely guilty of it. I would rather play than do school work. I would rather practice than study. I think I would rather do an forms of exercise rather than work...
But, if sports ever interfere with your walk with God, don't come. This is something that I have to remind myself daily. Especially since I am in charge of the men's frisbee team. I know we try to pray before and after games, and we try to play with good spirits and enjoy the other team's company, but if one's personal walk is failing, I would rather lose every game and that they recover in their walk. Granted.... losing every game would suck. So I would like to know reasons for not coming to games, but if one's relationship with God is failing or school is not doing so well, don't come. Sure you want to, but don't come. Or at the bare minimum, work harder so you can come to play (in terms of school).
My little advice for others, but also a huge reminder for myself. Why am I alive? To glorify God. Can I glorify Him through sports? Yes, I believe so. But that should never be an excuse to not seek Him because He is the reason for my existence, not a sport that I can't even play for UVA, let alone past college. Sigh.... the limitations of one's physical abilities/limitations of the sport not being beyond college as an occupation. Haha, clearly I have been called to other areas, which I hopefully can discover soon.
On a side note, my sleeping has been suffering for some reason, so please pray for me.
