Just One Thing

"Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." Philippians 3:13-14

St. Paul undrstands the power of just one thing. He uses the pharse "one thing" to bring clarity and focus to his calling. Sometimes, nothing seems to be right with our game; we miss our passes, bungle our shots, teamwork is a mess, that's when we must focus on "just one thing".

Assistant Coach Luke share with us to set a personal improvement goal everytime we practice. It does the same thing. It help us focus on just one tning that we want to improve on, then work at it. It will take time but it will be effective.

In life, it the same as well. When we feel overwhelmed, focus on "just one thing"; focus on God. Trust Him to guide you on the right path

Purpose

Guys, remember the feeling we had when we had these medals put onto us?

Do you remember the joy we had when we overcome our opponents?

Do you remember what pushed us forward towards the podium?

Do you remember what made us "victors" on that day?

Team, do you remember, why we started floorball at the first place?

Yes, we had a purpose... Do you remember that purpose?

We are not playing floorball for the sake of just playing it! We had a vision, a mission, a purpose... What made us victors on that day, team, is our heart! Our heart to glorify His name, to testify in His name! I'm here to remind you guys again why we are playing floorball, to reignite the passion in us we once had!

Remember team, our motto: One team, one body, one heart, one soul, one purpose, one goal!

Wind & Fire

On Pentecost Sunday, I had the privilege to share with my fellow Christians about the coming of the Holy Spirit, and I talked about how the disciples described their experience; "Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent WIND came from heaven and filled the whole house.... They saw what seemed to be tongues of FIRE that saparated and came to rest on each of them."  I was totally blowned away when I read that, even though I have read the same passage many times before. What an amazing experience that must have been for te disciples! What an amazing experience if WE were to experience that ourselves today!

I believe the Holy Spirit manifest Himself in different ways for different people; As we are all created unique, the Holy Spirit spoke to us in ways that is specifically tailored for each of us. Although we may not have experienced the Holy Spirit the way the early disciples experienced Him, that does not mean that we are less a Christian. There may be people who tells us that we MUST feel this way or that way , or that one MUST speak in tongue of fall down senseless when the Holy Spirit fills us, and that if you do not behave that way then there MUST be something wrong or lacking in you. I don't buy that! The Holy Spirit manifested in the way that is appropriate for the disciples then. Just as the Holy Spirit will manifest in ways that is approriate to each of us now. The Holy Spirit fills us so that we are empowered to do God's work, and that empowerment tranlate into a passion to serve God. When we feel the passion for God, the Holy Spirit is within us!

So let us be moved to do great things for God, like a violent WIND!

Lets us burn bright with passion to serve the Lord, like tongues of FIRE!

Thoughts on the Parable of the Talents

"His master replied, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master's happiness!' Matt 25:21

The mid term exam is upon us and I wish to encourage all those facing the coming test to consider the Parable of the Talents.

God has given all that we have. In fact God has given us far more than we realised. We constantly discover that we have hidden talents as we explore and expanded our horizons. As students, we should be expanding and extending our potential in acquiring knowledge. As it is written in Proverb 18: 15 "The heart of the prudent gets knowledge; and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.", our responsibilities as students is to acquire knowledge while at the same time seek the wisdom from God to apply the knowledge. The question is this: Have we optimised our God given talents in our studies?

It is important to remember that while we glorify His name through our successes in sports, arts and music, we also bear testimony to God through excellence in our studies.

May God bless you with wisdom and dilligence as you prepare for your exam.

Coach Daniel
