My pastor had a message yesterday about The Beast Within. Part of it was about that little voice inside that feeds your addictions. The voice that makes you buy M&Ms at the checkout lane or fill your drink cup with ice cream at Jason’s Deli. Have you ever seen that move before? It’s pretty impressive.
But I prefer to think about another entity that is inside of all of us. I’m talking about the concept that there is another person inside of you. This is the person that is able to go further than you thought possible, overcome obstacles that seem insurmountable, and give you hope when things look hopeless.
Check out this video from former Tennessee Vol football player Inky Johnson:
Inky used that motivation to become a scholarship football player at Tennessee with plans on making it to the NFL. His chances looked good until he got injured making a tackle. The play almost killed him (nerve damage and internal bleeding) and would result in a paralyzed right arm and then end of his football career.
That is when he discovered just how much the person inside could handle. A great message with several other nuggets to keep you motivated. Definitely worth 3 minutes of your day.
