Validation...


Isn’t it true that we always seem to find what we need when we need it? Case in point….
I mentioned on Facebook this morning about being a basketball slug. This weekend is the ACC Tournament which oozes into the NCAA Tournament. Unless I happened to be inconvenienced by work, I haven’t missed a game which has led to some late nights.

You see, I love, love, LOVE basketball, March Madness and ALL that this time of year entails; cheering on my team as well as any perceived under-dogs, the camaraderie and the devotion to the competition as well as the idea that most of the nation stops and takes notice.
I get a charge out of the heckling and first-rate joking bestowed to others as a result of their choice of favored teams because well, let’s face it, we all have allegiances and the event ties us all together with one clear winner…I’m hoping it is the Carolina Tar Heels! Who is your choice?
Hah, just when I was feeling a tad guilty about my dedication to such matters I connected to ‘Message from God’ as I do now and again to receive the words He could possibly bestow upon me.


On this day of your life, Tracy, we believe God wants you to know ... that you've been driving yourself too hard lately.
Message from God
Sure, there is time to invest yourself fully into work, but there is equally important time for joyful resting. And for you, this time is now. What is the absolutely most wonderful little treat you can give yourself? Do it today.

Well, what do you know I was vindicated by God himself-like I said, just when you need it most!
Thank you Lord! Want to watch the next game with me?

I love basketball, too, especially college basketball. Unfortunately, neither of my teams made it to the ACC finals (Virginia and Duke). :-(

I guess I will pull for UNC in the finals, though it pains me to do so . . . . (just kidding)

NCmountainwoman said...

I saw your Carolina flag on Kim's blog. Glad to meet another family that gives the definition to March Madness. My husband went to undergrad and medical school at Chapel Hill so it goes without saying that our blood runs Carolina Blue.

Enjoy the tournament. I'm sure God is watching because I hear my husband call upon him a lot during the games!

Nancy said...

Well what more needs to be said...If God said it's OK then girlfriend it's OK...Enjoy

Linda Reeder said...

It doesn't look like our Huskies will make it to the dance. In any case, I admit, I don't participate much in March Madness, for basketball anyway. For me it's the beginning of another season of the Sounders and MLS action!
Enjoy!

Joyful Noise for a Joyful Life said...

I am the same when it comes to football. I think God puts these seasons in our life to help us take a step away from all the hectic activities in life and come together with others with a common purpose. Nothing wrong with the joy of competition and fanfare. Enjoy!

Pamela said...

Joyful resting. How I love that. Sometimes I feel guilty for taking time for things I enjoy. I think I'll do some some joyful resting this week!

Ginny Hartzler said...

Interesting. What is Message From God? Is it a blog or what?

Wanda's Wings said...

Glad you listened to God. It took me a hospitalization to know I needed too to slow down. Enjoy March madness!!!

Lisa @ Two Bears Farm said...

Enjoy your bball time. My treats all involve running :-)

Mike said...

I don't follow B ball but, I was stationed in Korea, with the 8th, aka The Wolf Pack. My SIL is an alum there, too.

Lot of rivalry in my family, from Red, Blue and Puke. ;)

Arkansas Patti said...

Hope your team makes to the end and does you proud.
I am a baseball fanatic and this time of year I am following Spring Training and awaiting April like a 5 year old wanting Christmas.

Gail said...

Glad you got just what you needed...things have a way of working out like that.

Old Kitty said...

It's great to enjoy what you enjoy! I hope your team wins! YAY! Take care

My Mind's Eye said...

Hi Ms. Tracy and Angel Kitty!!
I'm so glad you were able to attend my 10th b-day party!! I hope you got plenty to eat and were able to catch a few winks.
Hugs from your BFFF,
madi

Icy BC said...

It's good that you take time out for joyful resting, and listen to God's message!

Gooooooooooooooo Buckeye!!!!!!!!!!!

MunirGhiasuddin said...

i am not qa big fan of basket ball, but hey if you live it all the power to you. Our children were too much into baseball to give attention to any other sport, you know one of them a Yankee fan the other for the Mets. Now they both are out of New York State, but still like both the teams anyway.

MunirGhiasuddin said...

Sorry about the miss spells. You are a teacher and I did not mean to disrespect you, just my coordination between brain and typing is rusty. Will be careful next time.

Connie said...

Ha! I hope you have a great time watching the basketball games. I'm not much into watching basketball or other sports, but I know there are lots who do. I see nothing wrong with enjoying yourself when you can. :-)

Unknown said...

You got His stamp of approval, then it's fine! Chuckle!!

Have a great week ~

I have never really gotten into basketball. I enjoy football the best. Thanks so much for your visit and comment.

Nikki (Sarah) said...

What great fun passion....That message from God...that says it all. have a ton of fun

Unknown said...

My son is 6'9" and played college basketball. However, I am not particularly a fan of any organized sport. I went to every game my son played but, my interest stopped when he graduated college.

And my favorite picture of Jesus is one of him with his head tilted back, laughing. I know that God has a great sense of humor....he created the skunk didn't He!
