Bring it On!

What a week this has been. When I became an SID, these are the weeks the old-timers warned me about. I haven't been home before 7:15 any night so far and I'm heading out of town tomorrow afternoon and won't be back until around midnight Friday. THEN, we have three home games Saturday.

But you know what, it's made easier because I know spring is here. Or at least really close. I love the spring. Great weather, the grass gets green, I can golf again. I just feel happier in spring. I think almost every does. I am happy, but I can't help but notice that there are many around me that aren't. There are many reasons why they aren't. Sickness, financial troubles, issues at work. No matter what it is, we should not be disheartened or afraid.

Psalm 27
"The Lord is my light and my salvation'; Whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

"...For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock. And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me...I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord."

This might be one of the most uplifting chapters in the Bible. It gives me so much confidence. After reading it I almost feel like shouting, "bring it on!" With God on my side, there is nothing I can't overcome.

I hope those that are having problems in their lives right now take look at this verse and understand what God can truly do.
