ANW's Thoughtful Thursday
What team do you play for?
It takes just the right chemistry to win games; and the winning team is one that has heart, and is blessed with being "poor in spirit" (Matthew 5:3) aka humble; "hunger and thirst for righteousness" (5:6) aka doing what is right and good; and are "peacemakers" (5:9) aka work together as one. And, without these kind of players it is difficult to win, as many teams have players, or just one player, who only play for themselves.
I played professionally, Team Nursing, for almost thirty years; and in those thirty years, I played ball with a great deal of selfish players, not teammates. Most of them played dirty and stepped on anyone to get ahead. Trying to be a team player almost got me killed, because the behaviors were allowed and tolerated by the General Managers, GMs.
Fortunately, I now play on a new team, The Beautitudes, God's team. Our uniforms represent Him, "The Lord Jesus Christ" (Romans 13:14); and we win every day, because we all play with heart and are humble, grateful, kind, caring, loving, giving, patient, transparent, helpful, supportive, good, present, focused, happy, strong, confident, honest, and have integrity.
So, if you are on a team that is struggling to win, might reconsider the franchise that you are playing for and seek one that has a winning combination. #TeamHeart #NeverLoses
