TCC Jackets 34 - Roswell Hornets 42As I sit in the darkness wiping the tears from my eyes, I just can’t believe this season is over. I am so fiercely upset; wanting it to be a dream. After everything my family and I have been through this past year, I wanted this season to end with a ring.
Coach Bear Bryant said it best “It’s awfully important to win with humility. It’s also important to lose. I hate to lose worse than anyone, but if you never lose you won’t know how to act. If you lose with humility, then you can come back.” Humility is one of the most difficult things to learn. In 2 Chronicles 7:14, you cannot receive God’s salvation without humility. In fact it is the very first condition for God's response, forgiveness, and healing of His people, is humility. God says that we are to humble ourselves before Him. As a prerequisite for relating to God, humility is like one of those required classes. You know the class, one you don’t want to take but can’t fail because if you do you can’t move forward. Winning and losing are not easy and both require humility. The emotions and work that come from both evoke discipline and dedication to something bigger than yourself. It’s hard to be a coach’s wife. It is not for the faint of heart. It requires humility. Love is impossible without humility. It inspires growth within each person and generates a deeper connection. In the end the relationships you build, the love you share, and the people that become like family make it all worth. To the 7 young men that became big brothers to Gunner, you're worth more than any number on a scoreboard. Coach and I are beyond proud of you. Hold your head high, because there are many things a scoreboard can’t measure, like character, commitment, hard work, and perseverance. Lastly, Thank you Jacket Nation for everything! Your unwavering support means the world. Record: 12-1 Next Opponent: Signing Day 2023
