The “Soccer” Game of Life
We are all playing this game of life and have our own personal teams who are made up of a few different players who are playing for you. Each person on Your team plays a very important part and some at very specific times. Here’s a new way to think about the people in your life, and where you stand in others.
The players on our team would be:
The Coach: Who is played by God. He sets up the plays and gives us advice then watches, roots for, and directs us from the sidelines, allowing us to play it out until we can come back to him for more direction. He’s always there, always heard, planning, and supporting. There are your main field players:
Forwards, mids, defensive line, and goalie. Forwards are the people who are actively fighting life with you, running by your side, who take the ball when you need a way out and there to set you up for success (a goal). They are also your first line of defense, the first people you may go to in a tough situation. When you look around they are always there, right beside you.
The Mids are a strong support line for your game, although they can play full range in your life, they are more efficient in the middle playing support and coming up when you when you need them. They can become whatever you need them to be.
Your Defense is mainly made up of people in your life who you know you can count on for solid support when you are, or your life is, under attack. They are not as active in the game but always there waiting to defend for you.
The Goalie seems to me, to be that someone you may or may not call on in your life all too much, depending on how much you are attacked, but they can become your last and biggest defense and life saver for your game. When all your plans get out of control, don’t go the way you thought, and with your whole team scrambling to assist, they stand strong, focus, and defend you, your heart, your life.
In every game there are Sideliners who mostly sit back and watch until you need to call on them. They are available when you need them and can only play certain positions, but you can trust they will be there.
Along the way you may meet Substitutes. These are people who may come in or out of your life and help in a significant or small way, but they are only there for a moment.
Last but certainly not least the Referees. These are only a few people who may give you serious direction in the game. They are not on anyone’s team, but available to everyone. They are people such as a teacher, pastor, or other. They are fair and just, leading the game to be that way as well.
So who in your life plays what positions, and what position do you play in theirs? Thank you all for being on My team where ever you are on the field, I appreciate every single one.
What do you feel more like at this moment??

Beauty Tips that really work!! From: cosmopolitan.com
1) Powder Your RootsIf your hairline starts to look greasy, dig up a big, fluffy makeup brush, and dip it into a pot of loose powder. Tap it once on the back of your hand to remove the excess, then dust it over your roots. It mops up oil and blends into your strands, so no one will know you didn't shower.
2) Scent Strands with PerfumeSpray a light shot of fragrance into the bristles. Run it through strands from roots to ends and your hair will smell amazing throughout the day
.3) Cure Calluses with VaselineSlather on the petroleum jelly, and put on socks before bed to dissolve tough calluses overnight.
4) Spot-Treat SmudgesDip a cotton swab in eye-makeup remover, and trace it along your lids to erase any slipups or goofs when there's no time to redo your whole look.
5) Fix a Flushed FaceIf you turn red and stay that way after exercising (like seriously red for hours, even though you're healthy and hydrated), take an antihistamine like Benadryl when you leave the gym to reduce redness.

6) Soften Your Bod with AvocadoTake a ripe avocado, remove the pit and skin, and mash it up in a bowl. Slather it all over your body, let it sit for 20 minutes, then rinse off. Your skin will be sooo soft — avocado is a natural moisturizer.
7) Super-Glue a NailInstead of tearing off your nail when it breaks, put a tiny dab of Super Glue over the split, and paint a generous layer of your favorite nailpolish shade over it. Go for an opaque option (like red, purple, or coral) to camouflage and seal the crack.
8) Use Makeup Remover on Stubborn LipstickDon't try to rub off red lipstick (which makes it smear across your mouth — not so sexy). Instead, take a cotton ball or tissue, dip it in makeup remover, and just dab to erase the dark stain fast.
9) Tame Brows with Eye CreamPat any kind of rich eye cream over brows to help keep them hydrated and banish those icky white specks that look like dandruff.
10) Buff with Baking SodaIf you find yourself streaking (not glowing) after applying self-tanner, put some baking soda on a loofah, and scrub away the stripes.
11) Brush on Hair SprayFor the final step of your blow-dry, spray hair spray onto your brush, and run it through strands from roots to tips. This way, your do isn't so plastered and stiff but still holds volume and shine.
