​​SEASON THEME: LEAVING A LEGACY  TEXT: II Timothy 4:5
​​​THEME OF THE WEEK:  Leaving a Legacy of Greatness
Text: Read verses 46-62 / Luke 9:62  "And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.." 

   As God's children true greatness means that we follow our Savior with our whole heart! We should never focus to much on the past, but must continue to press forward in following Him without delay. In Luke 9:46-62 Jesus speaks to us about true greatness. It includes humbling ourselves like a little child. It means that we include everyone despite all of their unique personalities and differences. It's marked by our determination. It's shown in our mercy and love. It means we sacrifice, and it means that Jesus is the #1 priority in our lives.
   Now in our text verse 62 we see that true greatness also means that as God's children we follow Jesus with our whole heart pressing on with all our might and not looking back. In the few verses before this a man asked to go bury his father before following Jesus and another asked if he could first quick go say good bye to his friends and family. Jesus now in this verse stresses His point with the example of a farmer plowing his field. Jesus says the farmer must do this with all his strength always pressing forward and never looking back.
   Our XC teams this year just continue to get better and better. We have 2 very, very good teams! I dare say 2 very great teams. Quite possibly the greatest we have ever had. That being said we cannot lose our focus. Each week we must stay determined and hungry to reach our ultimate goals. As a team for this to happen we should exhibit the characteristics of true greatness that we see in our verses this week. Just like the example of the farmer plowing we can't focus much on the past struggles or the past accomplishments, but must instead continue to press forward with all our might toward our goals.
   May our God give us the grace in every part of life's race​ to be truely great! Which means we must follow our Savior with our whole heart!  In this way then Leaving a Legacy of true Greatness.

​"Mental toughness is many things. It is humility because it behooves all of us to remember that simplicity is the sign of greatness, and meekness is the sign of true strength. Mental toughness is spartanism with the qualities of sacrifice, self-denial, dedication. It is fearlessness, and it is love."

​​​​HAVE A GREAT WEEK! 

WE ARE STRONG!!​​​​
