"Successful players are good soldiers. A good example of this according to the coach of the Detroit Red Wings is Steve Yzerman. When he scored a lot of goals, his team was a loser. When Scotty Bowman took over he wanted him to become a checker, a passer, and all around leader! That year, 1997, they won the Stanley Cup even though Steve only scored 24 goals all year."
-Quoted from the Winnipeg Free Press Sports page.
God wants us as well to be team players; like listening to our spiritual mentors and learning to follow orders, even if we don't like the assignment.
2 Timothy 2:3 says,
"Thou therefore endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ."
