Golf's Challenges: Physical and Spiritual

Hello everyone!
Sorry I haven't posted in a week! Today, I went to the golf course with Dad and played 15 holes! Most of it was fun, but 3 holes consisted of crying the whole time! Yeah. . . I wasn't playing as well as I wanted, and I was a liiitttlllleee upset about it. But after the tears subsided, I remembered that no matter what is going on, I need to trust God and praise Him through all of it!
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says, "Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus."
Also, Isaiah 33:6 says, "He will be the sure foundation for your times, a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge; the fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure."
And finally, Isaiah 41:10b says, "I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
So God is totally in control of everything, including my golf, and I am making a decision to rely more on Christ and trust in His will instead of my feelings and worries. When I go play, instead of worrying the whole time, I will enjoy myself and trust God that He is making good come out of everything! If you play golf, remember this too, but if you don't, definitely use this in all other parts of your life. God's will is perfect and wonderful, so trust it in all you do! :)
