In Real Life.........
Eric Liddell, known as the "Flying Scotsman," was an Olympic runner—and a minister of the gospel.
He took a strong stand when he refused to compete in a race because the meet was held on a Sunday.
Rather than running, Eric was at church preaching as the games continued without him.
He was faithful to what he knew was God's will in his life.
Since that day in 1924 his testimony has ministered to thousands of people, young and old, as they have struggled to determine the right thing to do in similar circumstances to those Eric faced.
Later a movie was made.......of which the magnitude of the impact thereof, are still today..... reverberating!
Eric later went on to be the winner of the 400 meter race at the 1924 Summer Olympics held in Paris—he chose to honor God with his decisions, and he was blessed with success.
His passion for running was evident, but his love and commitment to Christ, who gave him the ability to run, was foremost in his heart and mind.
When you know God's will in a specific area of your life....,
Are you quick to obey?
Ask The Lord .....
To Guide you to :
- See the Wisdom
- Experience the Riches of Living .....for Him !
Do you receive yet "the Blessing(s)" He has for you?
Shalom
