"Ten Questions God is not going to ask a Coach"

"Ten Questions God is not going to ask a Coach"
By Dave Bliss

*Dave covered these ten questions at the FCA meeting for coaches at the NCAA Final Four in San Antonio in 2008.

1. God will not ask how many wins you had, but rather how many souls you saved?

2. God will not ask you how much money you made, but rather how did you use this money he gave you to further the Kingdom?

3. God will not ask you how many tournaments or trophies you won, but rather if you compromised your character to win them?

4. God will not ask how popular you were, but rather if you pridefully sacrificed your important relationships to gain the approval of people you never knew.

5. God will not ask if you were a head coach or an assistant, but rather did you use the talent He gave you to the best of your ability every day, without complaint.

6. God will not ask about your car, your clothes, or your house, but rather have you prepared for eternity without any of them?

7. God will not ask you what they said about you on ESPN after a win, but rather what He will read about you on Judgment Day.

8. God will not ask you what you got out of coaching, but rather how you used this gift to encourage other coaches.

9. God will not ask you why you sinned, but rather did you accept His provision for your sins, His son Jesus Christ?

10. God will not ask how it took so long sot sek salvation, but rather welcome you to a mansiion in Heaven.

*All coaches are looking for an EDGE! the EDGE comes from developing an close relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
