AB De Villiers - First test SA vs AUS

So about 45 minutes ago the Protea National SA team beat Australia in the first test match of the series in Aus. What made it extra special is that it was the second highest chase total in the history of test cricket. This was also the first win on AUS soil.
 
AB De Villiers, scored 63 in the first innings and went on to score 106 in his second innings. It was a spectacular innings and he deservably won man of the match. When He scored his 100 he ran down the crease and looked upwards to thank God.
 
When the interviewed Him he stood firm in his faith & shared it with all. Last night, according to him, when he read the Bible last night he read a verse that said 'I the Lord God will be with you through deep waters and protect you'. He felt that God was with him and supported and guided him today.
Well done AB! Stand firm in fiath and do not be lead astray by others and the feelings and emotions of winning and success.
