Love this message!! ❤️❤️❤️
It’s hard to feel like there shouldn’t be another number up there — 96, ‘06, ‘08 and 2009. As athletes, sometimes it’s the missed opportunities, the mistakes, and the losses that stick with you more than all the wins and great plays. Sometimes they truly hurt more. I spent so much of my life striving for wins and agonizing over losses, not that there is anything wrong with wanting to win a game. But when that game becomes your identity, you can’t help but ride the rollercoaster of all the highs and lows. Over the years and thanks to many mistakes, I’ve had the chance to learn and constantly be reminded 😃 that my identity is so much more than a game! I’m grateful, through God’s grace, our identity doesn’t have to be a roller coaster but we get the firm foundation of who He is and what He’s done for us on the cross. We aren’t defined by our mistakes or our scars. We’re defined by His.
