Ruan Pienaar & Talent

Was watching a local TV station's rugby show last night and they profiled Ruan Pienaar a world cup winning Springbok player. Something that stood out for me was the following:

  • that the heavenly Father has given and blessed him with talents that he needs to use
  • that it is a priveledge to be able to run out onto the rugby field every weekend
  • that it is how he plays and uses his talents
  • and that it is how he stands up every time he gets knocked down that is important.

 Amazing to hear this from a young, already well established and well achieved sportsmen. Keep that faith Ruan!

 

May your faith as a sportsmen be firm and may you praise God for the talents He has blessed you with as a sportsmen and often role model to many!

God Bless
