humbling story about me recently..
Posted : 10 Dec, 2014 02:05 PM

Im a local boxer and I compete in strong man competitions.. Im 6'6 and 280 lbs.. Im more then twice the size of anyone I box against (there is no one my size to match me with).. I can lift cars and pull trucks... most of my life I felt invincible..



That all changed not to long ago.. I stepped into the boxing ring with a 20 year old kid from the U.S. Marines.. he was no bigger then 5'10 and 180 lbs.. he was very athletic, but only half the size of me.. there was no fear in his face at all.. once the fight started, I hit him with some jabs, that did not appear to affect him at all.. but once he started unloading punches on me, I was completely at his mercy.. his punches felt like death, they had to stop the fight in the second round to save my life.. I was out cold and carted off on a stretcher.. if I had been awake, I would had kissed his feet for mercy...



Its a humbling reminder from God that just because I am the size of the Hulk, does not mean I am invincible.. and He used to a true here from our armed forces to prove it to me.. not just a Marine, but a young rookie Marine to teach me a lesson.. now I have learned to bow my knee.. thanks

Reminds me of David and Goliath too. And this scene from another old film.
