Land of the Giants



Isn't amazing how tall some people are? We literally ran into a "giant" this past weekend in Chapel Hill for the UNC basketball game. We had seats about 15 rows behind the tarheel bench. They were awesome seats and we saw many of the former players including Eric Montross. Eric was a star center for the 93' championship team and is approximately 7'0' ft tall.

He was sitting about 6 rows in front of us and my kids were fascinated with him. Stephen wanted to go get his autograph and during one of the time-outs he went down and Eric gladly signed his ticket. It was a big thrill for him and a great night for our family.

Seeing Eric, had me thinking about how big Goliath must have been in the Bible. David was a brave young man to stand up to him and took him down with a few rocks and a slingshot. May we have the courage to face our giants with courage and faith in God to lead us.

P.S. For those interested, Stephen's baseball team will playing for the his league's baseball championship on Friday night. Keep you posted!
