Everybody knows that WWJD stands for "What Would Jesus Do." A couple of years ago the saying swept across America like wildfire, becoming so popular that this witnessing tool also became a fashion statement, even to unbelievers. However, most athletes and coaches, men and women, young and old wore it to share their love for Christ. Even though WWJD is not new, the message is still powerful. The last thing we need is another acronym, but GGTG is a great reminder for athletes and coaches. It should be the reason why we compete. As competitors, it helps us to focus on the main thing. The message is plain-it is not about us, but about Christ. So what does GGTG stand for? It stands for "Give God The Glory." Whatever we do (speech, actions, and thoughts), give God the glory. It is a simple concept, but hard to live out. All glory (awards, recognition, winning seasons, scoring the winning goal) must be given back to our Savior. Any glory that we keep for ourselves, we steal from God. We should be mirrors. When God looks at us, all His glory shines back at Him. Give God the glory. GGTG! |
