anecdotes - A FLESHING HEADER
I've never been a fan of the tabloid newspapers in England but after trying to write a posting every day, I am beginning to see why they get so umm creative in their football stories. To come up with something new every day is not an easy task but it still doesn't give journalists the license to make things up! Be more observant or try to do some actual research with the appropriate football clubs! Actually I have no idea why I said that because no journalist is going to ever going to read these comments so I shall not blabber on anymore.
Who says that you never learn anything from the bible?
My son and I were driving (I was working the pedals, he was doing the steering) to Bayern Baru Outreach Point and we saw a flock of birds flutter across the beautiful evening sky with the orange sun setting behind a cluster of clouds. After we had ascertained that they were feathered flying creatures and not distant leaves, Ben remarked "and the birds will eat your flesh." A bit gruesome for such a young kid. (c.f. Genesis 40:19). Kids' minds are like sponges!
Later in the evening, I went for a futsal game (11pm) in which I scored with a diving header. It was a beautiful feeling. It's generally difficult to score with headers due to the smaller size of the goals but a header where you have to connect with the ball at waist height is even more rare. I just sensed the low cross coming and flung my whole body across the defender and it flew in off my head. Wonderful!
