A thought from John 8:48-59 is that like an athlete who practices winning the prize, let us gain the prize with assurance that Holy Spirit within us will power us on to the victorious finish.  

We will huddle today and be given the play to execute as we pray. It’s up to us to listen so we can follow God’s plan for us and execute the play. Holy Spirit is with us to push us along to fulfill our role on the team. We will run, block, and catch what is thrown our way.
