What a good day Wednesday was!
A 1 day Sports Plus Camp in Belfast – 62 Young people and 22 Leaders
combined to re-inact one day of Sports Plus!
The weather was quality. Great to see some old friends and make some
new ones!!!
A reminder of where we got to last week:
We’re looking at the book of Colossians. Paul writes to a group of
Christians who are being tempted to follow new and exciting things
and not make Jesus number one. We looked at how Paul told them that
Jesus was absolutely everything – all they need.
We’re now in chapter 4 of Colossians following the strap-line of
Christians in Sport to PRAY,PLAY,SAY
Read v2-4 – Paul tells the Christians to pray.
For the last few weeks we have looked at ‘How to Play’ – with
devotion, being
watchful and thankful.
Now we need to understand what to pray for – Check out v 3 In this
letter by Paul he asks his friends to pray that God may give him
opportunities to share Jesus with others. In v4 he goes on to ask
prayer for himself – once God has given him opportunities, he wants
to be able to take them by being as clear as possible.
That’s your two fold prayer for your sport this weekend –
1 – God would give you opportunities
2 – When they come you would be able to be very clear about the
truth!
This week it would be brilliant to
hear of any stories where this happened – email
ian@christiansinsport.org.uk and we will put your story on the
website to encourage other young people around the UK.
Go well Jackdaws!!
