Empowered Faith: Navigating Life's Challenges

DAY 4 OF 20

I N F L U E N C E

Who has been the strongest influence on your athletic career? Has there been more than one person who has made a significant impact in making you the player you've become? Today's scripture speaks about compounded influence.

In Paul's first letter to his friends in Corinth at chapter 3 and verse 6, he writes, "I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow." Paul wrote in farming terms, we'll talk in athletic language.

Growing an athlete is like farming. In the growth process of a crop, there's the obvious collaboration between those who plant, cultivate, irrigate and harvest. In athletics it's equally true. In the growing of a champion, we see the compounding influences of parents, high school coaches, coaches from camps, teammates, opponents, college coaches and so on.

This is also true in the building of one's character spiritually. Parents, teachers, pastors, priests and friends all walk beside us on the way to a rich life in Christ.

Let's honor our eternal architect in this day's competition. Let's make each of our mentors and contributors proud through a great performance and outstanding character.
