God called Jeremiah to extract the precious from the worthless since he was living in a declining culture. In the NFL in the 1960s, Gale Sayers and Dick Butkus were all pros on bad Chicago bears teams. Despite the circumstances of being on bad teams, they rose to the occasion and excelled. We too should trust God with where we are at and we should let adversity test our faith. Let Jesus be heroic. Instead of saying why me God, let's say why not me.

#175-Ignorance is Bliss
The Bible makes it clear that deception is going to happen in the end days. We must eat (read & study) from God's Word so we are not deceived. We should be prepared to identify false teaching, in unity with our brothers, and we must be opportunistic in order to not fall into being deceived ourselves.

#174-Balls and Strikes
An Umpire in baseball has to call a ball or a strike accurately in the game of baseball. Coach George Darlington was an assistant football coach at the University of Nebraska and he coached multiple positions. George loved Jesus and he shared Christ with many people. George was like an umpire in that he didn't care what others thought, but his job was to call a ball a ball and a strike a strike and he did that exceptionally well. We can all learn Coach Darlington's example of doing the same.
