?? FCA Daily Impact Play Bob Bowman coached Michael Phelps and helped him grow physically and mentally stronger. He put Phelps through intense and high-pressure situations, which at the time caused Phelps to be uncomfortable and even suffer a bit. In one practice, Bowman intentionally broke Phelps’s goggles and made him continue practicing. Phelps completed a tough and painful practice with water blinding his vision. But it would be worth it as he began his 100-meter butterfly race in the 2008 Beijing Olympics. As he was competing for his seventh medal and about to break the world record, Phelps’s goggles broke, and water flooded into his eyes. But Phelps had gone through the discipline of broken goggles with his coach. He remembered his training and continued… winning a gold medal. No discipline is enjoyable at any point in our lives, but seeds are being planted in us. Although discipline may be tough, we celebrate when we see the fruit that grows from the seeds of that discipline and training. We can rejoice when we realize why we went through it. God sometimes leads us into challenging situations that train us and discipline us. When He does this, we usually don’t enjoy it but wish we could run from it. However, just like Hebrews states, later on, we’ll realize why God put us through it. Coach Bowman knew to train his athlete because he loved Phelps and wanted to see him succeed. God trains us each day because He loves us and wants our faith to be ready so we can succeed in all we face. So, when times of suffering, pain, temptation, hardships or other trials come our way, let us rejoice even in the pain, even when it doesn’t seem enjoyable because God is growing us, strengthening us and promising to use those moments to make our faith increase. **TO RECEIVE THE DAILY IMPACT to your email, follow the link below ?? https://lnkd.in/dXq5cFg

?? INSIDE A FCA HUDDLE ?? When FCA advisory board member, Paul, Breen, brought Michael to visit his first huddle, he had no idea that Gee Scott and Treveyon Henderson would also be there! The students reached out to the Ohio State football players on social media inviting them to their huddle. These two young men showed up at 6:45 AM on a Friday morning the day before a noon game!! Not only that, but they never even mentioned football. They shared their testimonies and answered questions about their faith. While we can’t guarantee our National Champions will be at the huddle you visit, we can guarantee that you’ll be inspired by every one of our student leaders! Find a huddle to visit here and experience the magic yourself?? https://lnkd.in/gYHA2z3g
