Happy Thanksgiving - RaceCityFCA
A Thanksgiving message from our Students
Greetings, FCA Family and Friends!!!
I stepped out onto my carport this Thanksgiving Eve only moments before a thunderstorm began to pass quickly through the area. My cell phone alerted me that lighting was nearby, which was affirmed by the rolling thunder in the distance. The wind began to pick up along with the increased intensity of rainfall. Gusts of wind started to flow sideways, and raindrops converted into hail size bullets pounding everything within its shadows. I was completely in awe of the moment because the Holy Spirit reassured me that despite all the calamity around me, I can forever rest in his peace, which produces a joy that makes me grateful. I am forever thankful for the wondrous work performed on the cross, the soothing Comforter that dwells in the hearts of believers, and a Father who is willing to go to great lengths to reconcile his creation! In conclusion, as I reflect on 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, which says for us to "Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
I am immensely blessed on how the Lord has brought me out of calamity and into a new season of full-time ministry with Fellowship of Christian Athletes. My coaches, athletes, and students are the biggest joys in my life as I get to watch Christ flow in the hearts of young people. A year ago, there was only one FCA huddle and 45 students. At this moment we have 15 huddles that reach 300 students on a weekly basis!
God is so good, and I pray that time with family and friends will be richly blessed.
Very Respectfully,
