Your Bible And You 1
? By Daniel Davis
1 J
Would you like your faith to ignite
a fire in your church? In your
community? It can, and should' God
has not given us a weak and whimpy
faith. Each Christians has received a
powerful faith, one thai can move
mountains.
have the mountains been towering
over you this week? Have your prayers
seemed to go no higher than the
ceiling? Your Father in Heaven has
ordained that your faith will be so
potent that it would only take the
smallest portion to accomplish great
things! How then do we gain a
mountain moving, fire building faith''
One of the most essential
ingredients for a strong, saving faith is
prayer Through the ages, every great
man of faith spent much time on their
knees, it really makes sense. To
maximize this gift from our Creator's
hand, we must maintain a constant
connection to our only source of
power!
Soil of like the lamp and the
electrical outlet. The only way the
lamp will ever shine is by maintaining
it's connection with the outlet. The
lamp may wish to shine by some other
method, but no one will be happy with
the results It may determine to shine
without that vital connection to the
power source, but it's determination
will prove futile!
Like the lamp, you and I will only
shine when connected to the power
Do you desire the faith of champions'/
Then plug into the only known power
source Spend time each day with
your Maker Allow Him to fill your
life with power and glory!
I Cameron's Comment
By Paul Cameron
During Final Four week. 1 got to
chat with an old friend. Tulsa head
coach Tubby Smith
Tubby took the Golden Hurricanes
to the NC AA Midwest regional semi
finals before bowing to eventual
champ Arkansas. It was nothing short
of a m iracke year for Orlando'?wtotoy"'
Smith
But then. Tubby comes from a
background of near miracles. Smith
and I went toGreat Mills High together
in Lexington Park. Maryland
Actually. I was two years behind what
would become the all-time scoring
leader in St Marys County history
He had moves made of silk and a
jumper that rarely failed
Tubby also had 17 brothers and
sisters
He wasn'tgoing to college without
a scholarship, yet Tubby isn't without
education. He's a well spoken
gentleman who yets the job done
without screaminy for attention.
After a stint as assistant coach under
JD Barett at VCU. Tubby went back
to Great Mills to coach is alma mater
tr\ to coaJi
bad blood ''
I can only imayine
If Miami doesn't renew Don Shula
in favor of Jimmy Johnson as head
coach of the Dolphins, would the
Panthers be interested?
You better believe it. Mike
McCormack is a huge Shula fan.
So am I.
