Today on the show Gibbs encourages Team Lancaster Thunder to have the faith of a mustard seed inside blessing and adversity. Take the journey to Tampa Bay and remember Santonio Holmes amazing game winning catch in Super Bowl 43. Often what creates a champion, or elevates the level of a player from All-Star to All-Pro is there effectiveness in making the right play while in traffic, or under intense pressure, or double coverage. The craftmanship of the Kansas City Chiefs Championship ring also demonstrates excellent precision in small spaces see it here.... https://youtu.be/7xdz3HRLpD8 God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit give us everything we need to thrive in both trial and blessing with hope and peace! Just like world class athletes can stay focused and make the right plays, which turn into big plays under duress, increasingly as followers of Jesus Christ growing in Godly maturity, we can have the fruits of the spirit on display, for God's glory in both hard times and flourishing times.
