Take this blessing of the Lord's into our next matches.

We have been playing well, we have been playing fairly. Let's continue this into the Regional, hoping that others will play well also. Let's enjoy our matches!

Let us keep this cycle in our mind, and continue to bless others with our prayer as well. Our families, our teammates, our classmates, our opponents all can be the recipients of our prayers. Let us bless them and seek the Lord together in a journey of discipleship.
