So on friday afternoon i watched the movie, 'Hansie', about Hansie Cronje, the former SA cricket captain, who meant so much to the SA nation as a sporting hero, but whom fell to temptation of satan and money.
It was a really awesome movie that brought back many memories of his rise and fall. What stood out in the movie was his faith, particulalry after his fall. It once again showed me how important faith is to an individual and should be to a sportsman. Once he realised that God forgave him and he forgave himself, hs life started improving and the relationships with friends and family improved. Unfortunately Hansie died a tragic death in a flying accident.
So do yourself a favour and go watch the movie. It is an inspiration. Pay particular interest to his faith and the faith of others around him. Also listen to the quote, early on in the movie, of Eric Liddle from the Chariots of Fire story. I will share that in a future post.
So happy watching.
