Golf with Friends

Yesterday, I got to play 13 holes of golf with couple buddies (Mike and Rudy) from church, and man we were blessed with a great day.  Low and behold the storm that was supposed to hit turned into a slight drizzle and really the temperature was fairly cool throughout the afternoon. Though we lost a slew of golf balls, we had a great time encouraging each other and just enjoying each others company and the game itself.

Throughout my time out there, I kept thinking of how God has blessed me with the opportunity to have golf as my outlet, my stress relief, my place to go and forget about other things and focus on where im at this very moment- with a ball and a club and seeking the pin. When I play by myself sometimes I have the alone time to just talk to God and meditate on him and just witness his wonders through being on the course.  Its very rejuvenating, and you can spend alot of time with God on the course.

Also like in yesterday you can fellowship with others while playing.  Its always nice to have someone playing with you and golf is a sport where you can really play and have deep conversations at the same time.

I guess I just wanted to express my thanks and praise to the Lord for everything he has blessed me with and in particular right now his blessing of golf- being a positive in my life.
