Ephesians 2:10 (NIV)

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

Reflection

Your sport is a platform, not your purpose.

It’s easy to get wrapped up in the wins, workouts, and what’s next. But Ephesians reminds us that you were made for more than stats and schedules. You were created in Christ to live on mission.

Your character, kindness, and courage on and off the field can be the way someone else sees Jesus. Let your sport be a stage for something greater: God’s glory.

Application

Ask God to show you one way to serve or encourage someone today through your role as an athlete.

Compete with Faith. Grow with His Word.
