Why do we have coaches in sports? Couldn’t we just let the players go out and run the games free lance? Especially as they get older they should know enough shouldn’t they?
No, that is not the case. Players are in the midst of the fray during a game and do not have the same view as the coach does from the sideline. The coach truly has a unique perspective.
He understands what his team is trying to do. He knows his players and their abilities in a deeper way than other observers. He even gets to hear what they are feeling/thinking in the huddle.
He is aware of the direction they are intending to go; of the obstacle they have to face, etc. He has even scouted the “enemy” to create a game plan. And most importantly he is on his players’ side. He wants the very best for them.
A great verse that reminds us about having God as our coach – on our side:
Psalm 18:29 “With God’s help we can run through a barricade; with our God we can scale a wall.” (NIV)
Listen to Him! Trust Him! Go in the direction He has laid out for you!
