Do you have game?

We are in the aftermath of March Madness and I wanted to share some thoughts from one of the greatest events of sports.

It’s not that Bill Self decision to foul with over two minutes remaining, which seemed crazy at the time was genius.

It’s not that it’s the first national championship for the Big XII.

It’s not that Clay finally won something. (His tournament bracket)

It’s about a comment I heard on the day that Michigan State was to play Memphis. A Michigan State player was asked about Memphis up-tempo style of play and how would they be able to keep up with them.

He responded by saying: That the team has been practicing religiously to compete with Memphis.

The Michigan State Spartans went on to loose to the Memphis Tigers that night 92 – 74.

Seeing the final outcome of their practicing it makes me think of the question – If a basketball team practiced religiously based on my spirituality what would the final score be?

I hope that they would put up a better fight than the Spartans did. The Spartans kind of played like a team practicing religiously with spirituality of a person who shows up to church on Christmas and Easter.

How’s your basketball team practicing?

How is your spiritual workout?

Sunday mornings? Sunday nights? Wednesday nights?

Or are you a spiritual gym rat?

Our Memphis (struggles with temptations) is on the schedule.

I hope you will be cutting down the nets. (Have a strong spiritual walk with God and spend eternity with him)

Practice, Practice, Practice (Go to Church, Read your Bible, Live a Christ like life)
