Family
Have you allowed fame, career, success, or time to get in the way of … family responsibilities? (Jim Sheard and Wally Armstrong, golf writers)
Like many professional athletes, golfers spend a lot of time away from home, often playing Thursday through Sunday with practice rounds starting even earlier. That, along with the other concerns mentioned by the authors, can surely be a strain on the family. On the other hand, we who are at home al l week can be just as neglectful, pursuing our own interest fulltime.
But if anyone does not provide for his own, and especially for those of his household, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever. (1 Timothy 5:8)
