meaning behind the obvious

God's strength + believing you can do it = success

Give us self-awareness for that which we do.

"Giving your best to equip yourself for God's work."

Isaac Bruce

[This post is a bit late, but I thought Isaac Bruce's jersey retirement ceremony warranted mention. I truly miss watching that guy play for the Rams.]

During the number retirement ceremony for No. 80 of the St. Louis Rams, Isaac Bruce was introduced at last after a lengthy introduction.

Walking up to the podium with boisterous cheers and a standing ovation, Bruce simply says "Glory to God, Glory to God" to start off his speech. No "I want to thank..." Just re-directing the praise right away.

"Just another example - you honor God, he honors you."

Thank you Isaac for always being a player who despite not being the tallest or the fastest receiver, always played the game the right way and got the job done.
