My coach told me that the team is breaking apart because I had been going to church on Sundays. I don’t want my team to break apart and I don’t want to break the promise I made to God. Because God will punish me when I don’t obey Him. Christ saved me.
I find it hard to believe that I am in this position whereby I’m told that my team is losing because of me, not played! I promised God to be in the congregation of Christians on \Sundays. My team lost 4-2 and they put the blame on me.
My coach even begged me that on the coming Sunday (17 June 2018) I must not go to church but to go to soccer. I’m the goal keeper, not the best as I have been on my game lately. There was a day we lost 4 -2, I did all the mistakes that game.
One guy even said that I must not be given a chance again. I promised God to be at church on Sundays, every Sunday. If I would not go to church even 1 Sunday, I would break the promise I made to God. That what I cannot afford to.
That made me to be not happy with my coach, he ssid things that broke me, but he did not see that because I didn’t want him to see that he was breaking me . My coach is a Shembe guy. He told me that it does not mean that I will not go to heaven when I miss just a day at Church.
He even said tthat, although I go to church right here in jail I would not go to church when I go out. He said to me, it is understandable of him. Because before he was arrested he was a Shembe guy and he also sacrificed some Saturdays for soccer.
He empasied that missing one day does not mean he will not go to heaven. He said that God is above all things that which are in earth. But what makes me don’t understand him is that if God is above everything, then why should I listen to him?
The truth be known, One of the principles my teacher and pastor taught me says,’small compromises lead to great disasters.’ Small sins lead to big sins. Then guess what I did. I made a decision no compromise on Sunday, but to go and be with the children of God on Sundays.
I have decide to follow Jesus
I have decided to listen to Jesus
Not to the world anymore
This happened on 12th June 2018 after Sunday my team lost 4-2 without me
