ball execute move people whenever
Offensively, we can move the ball when we want to, and whenever we have to. I would like to see us execute better and be more consistent. If we want to play with the people in our district, we have to be consistent. We're not there yet.
game helps toward win
Each game just helps with our confidence. A win would go a long way toward us making the playoffs.
defense line normal thinking
It was very emotional. (Even) at that moment, he's thinking about the team. We told the defense to keep them down there. They were on the one-foot line and they couldn't get their normal distance. We went for the block.
athletes capable number
We try to do that. We have a number of athletes capable (of contributing). We don't want to be one-dimensional.
christian heart lazy
The lazy Christian has his mouth full of complaints, when the active Christian has his heart full of comforts.
blood forever suffering
Our sins are debts that none can pay but Christ. It is not our tears, but His blood; it is not our sighs, but His sufferings, that can testify for our sins. Christ must pay all, or we are prisoners forever.
world christ
The world and you must part, or Christ and you will never meet.
humility men judging
Humility makes a man richer than other men, and it makes a man judge himself the poorest among men.
father dark house
Afflictions are but as a dark entry into our Father's house.
prayer breathing firsts
Prayer is nothing but the breathing that out before the Lord, that was first breathed into us by the Spirit of the Lord.
soul repentance
Repentance is the vomit of the soul.
judging feelings ordinary
Though there is nothing more dangerous, yet there is nothing more ordinary, than for weak saints to make their sense and feeling the judge of their condition. We must strive to walk by faith.
prayer long looks
God looks not at the oratory of your prayers, how elegant they may be; nor at the geometry of your prayers, how long they may be; nor at the arithmetic of your prayers, how many they may be; not at logic of your prayers, how methodical they may be; but the sincerity of them he looks at.
pain loss honor
Satan promises the best, but pays with the worst; he promises honor, and pays with disgrace; he promises pleasure, and pays with pain; he promises profit, and pays with loss, he promises life, and pays with death. But God pays as he promises; all his payments are made in pure gold.
