Life.

     I have 6 and 5/8 days of school left.  I'm ready to get out.  I really don't want to go to 8th period today.  I never want to go actually because volleyball workouts suck.  I REALLY don't want to go today though.  I'm already dreading it.  It is only 2nd period.  
     A while back, the week of Tupelo's volleyball tryouts, I posted about how sports aren't important.  I still think so.  But now, I'm, personally, feeling how sports can....with lack of a better word, break you.  Right now, volleyball is very....upsetting.  I'm kind of distraught about next year.  I'm trying to be hopeful and be there for my girls, but it is so hard.  I don't understand some things.  Actually, I don't understand a lot of things.  Volleyball was one thing I actually DID understand.  Until now.  
     So, now I'm back to where I was the week of tryouts.  I'm telling myself that sports really aren't important.  They have no eternal value at all.  At all.  God doesn't care about winning seasons or state championships or switching coaches or making the team or any of that.  That is hard to comprehend and NOT be upset about at this point.  I'm trying though.  Bible verses I just found....
-Proverbs 18:10 "The name of the Lord is a strong fortress; the godly run to him and are safe."
-Proverbs 17:27 "A truly wise person uses few words; a person with understanding is even tempered."
-Proverbs 18:2 "Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions."
-Matthew 5:44 "Jesus says love your enemies!  Pray for those who persecute you!"
-Matthew 6:21 "Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will be also."
-Matthew 6:34 "So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries.  Today's trouble is enough for today."
