Practice
Champions keep playing until they get it right. (Billie Jean King, former world #1 tennis player)
King “got it right.” This is good advice for anyone who wants to excel in sports or any other worthy endeavor. While she recommends lots of practice at your desired skill, you’ll note she did not say, “Practice makes perfect.” Why not? Because practice makes permanent. It’s the right kind of practice that can lead to a championship.
Jesus replied, “But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice (Luke 11:28).
