Lessons From Row 16
Monday, September 24th, 2007
READY: "Yet, with respect to the promise of God, he did not waver in unbelief but grew strong in faith, giving glory to God, and being fully assured that what God had promised, He was able also to perform."
-Romans 4:20-21
SET: Yesterday, the Kansas City Chiefs played their season home opener against the Minnesota Vikings. I was blessed to be able to go to the game and enjoy seats just 16 rows up from the field. Not only was this my first time at an NFL game, but also my first time in the loud and rowdy Arrowhead Stadium.
From opening kickoff, however, I discovered a trend. No matter how the Chiefs did on the field, no matter what play was called, regardless of its success or failure, most Chiefs fans around our section thought they could be a better coach. Through all four quarters they barked and complained. If Chiefs Head Coach Herman Edwards didn't like his quarterback on the field, there were plenty of armchair quarterbacks to choose from in the stands. By the time the game was over, however, the Chiefs had earned their first victory of the season. And I walked away with two lessons...
Have you ever been on a team and doubted your coach? Have you ever joined in with teammates in criticism? Maybe ask the question, "What in the world are you doing?" only to follow that with, "If I was coach..."
Athletes, the coach is the head of the team. You might not like what he or she is doing. You might disagree with some of their approaches or reasoning, but you have to respect and trust they are capable of leading your team. In my seven years of high school and college varsity athletics I've personally witnessed a team's success hang in the balance as athletes didn't believe in their coach.
Just as athletes doubt their coaches, we too, often doubt God, His plans and His purpose. Ever catch yourself saying, "What in the world are You doing, God?" Life has the ability to present us with a variety of moments where we can choose to believe God is capable of leading us or doubt He's even in the game.
If you're an athlete, trust and respect your coach. Stand up and show your teammates, parents and administrators your coach deserves it. And if you find yourself doubting God, be reminded today that He is always in the game. His recruiting, practices, play calling, substitutions and decisions are in your best interest. He will lead you to victory.
A quote to think about -
"If someone says something unkind about you, live everyday so no-one will believe it."
