My humbling testimony
Posted : 15 Feb, 2020 09:43 PM

I'm 39 and I have been competing in strongman competitions for 20 years, I have been lifting weights since I was 9.. I'm 6'0 and 300 lbs.. I also do boxing for a local armature league in my town.. it helps that I'm 3 times the size of my opponents for the most part..

I always felt I was invincible until I was matched up in the ring against a young 19 year old Marine who is no bigger then 5'10 and about 190 lbs..

I thought I could take him since he was tiny next to me.. but I was dead wrong.. he toyed with me for a minute, but then he got serious and when he did, his punches felt like death and I became scared for my life.. I was kissing his feet.. he broke my jaw and cheek bone and they had to stop the fight to save me.. the fight lasted less then 2 rounds.. I was just so glad when it was over...

When we come to a place where we see our weakness, we can delight to know that God is Almighty. So what did God teach you through this?
