“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be provided for you.”
-Matthew 6:33
After leading the nation in total offense and passing yards per game last season, University of Houston quarterback Case Keenum was all set to lead the Cougars to another great run in 2010. That all changed, however, when in just their third game Keenum suffered a season-ending knee injury that forced him to the sideline for his senior season. As a man of faith, the injury forced Keenum to rely on the Lord in new ways and to fully trust in the Lord’s ultimate plan.
Today, we’re concluding our four-part video devotion series based on Keenum’s recent interview with FCA’s Sharing the Victory magazine. To access the video, click the link below to watch or download the clip. After you’ve watched the short video, take a few minutes to answer the questions below and read the related Scripture.
1. Do you dwell on bad performances or losses? How much do they anffect your life away from the field?

3. What position should sports take in your life and how should it rank among your priorities?
