Disappointing news today...

Today started with the disappointing news that Matt Jones, former Razorback, has been arrested. What a tragic story. How many kids playing football in Arkansas, wore his number 9 jersey while pretending they were him?

We all fail. We all stumble. We all sin. Romans 7:14-20 comes to mind here.

It is a shame that someone with such God-given talent has fallen with such a thud right in front of our eyes. Matt has been in the spotlight much of his life. This just magnifies anything he does wrong. How would we act or live if our life was under a huge microscope?

We need to pray daily for God's help in fighting the temptations that are out in the world. They are definitely there. There is so much to lose.
