WHOSE GAME ARE YOU PLAYING

Both teams were suited up in their gear.  Helmets, pads, jerseys and cleats were in place and ready for the game.  It was a tough game.  Back and forth the score.  During one play the quarterback received a hard hit to the shoulder.  He was out of the game.  He wasn’t out of the game but out for the season.  Being a senior everyone was devastated.  What had started out to be a great year was quickly going down hill because of an injury. 

Have you ever been playing the game and then all of a sudden received a hard hit?  This hard hit knocked you for a loop and stopped you in your tracks.  You were injured and hurt.  You didn’t think you could keep on going. 


Maybe you have received a hard hit for a reason.  Instead of looking at the hit as devastating it may be God’s answer to prayer.  He evidently has a new direction in mind for you. 

Saul was playing his own game when he received a hard hit.  He was out for the count, blind and helpless.  But look what became of him, Paul.  God had a different plan and purpose for Saul.  It was a far greater plan than Saul had for himself. 

Don’t dwell in the past of what you think you could have been.  Look towards the future at what God knows you can be.  Get back in the game with a new purpose and a new plan.  Trust Him it will be more profitable than the one you had planned for. 


Get back in the game with God’s armor and His plan and purpose for your life and you will win!
