Ashamed

Last night I went to watch our grandson play freshmen football. I just go to watch him play. I don’t care about the outcome of the game.

Normally I am very quiet and just watch. Last night I verbally questioned the coach from the stands. Not once but several times. Why would I do that? I don’t know. As I said, I really don’t care about the score.

I am ashamed of my behavior and will take measures to never do that again. My emotions got the better of me and I got carried away. I want to be a better example of sportsmanship, but also of the Lord.

Philippians 2:14 says, “Do all things without grumbling or disputing.” I am so glad that God is not done working on me yet and that his grace and mercy cover me.

After 16 years of vocational ministry, God has called me to a simpler ministry. Now I just proclaim His truth simply to those who are open to hear it. God is speaking through His Word and His creation.
