Does God Care About Sports?
In this episode, Dr. Betters answers the question, "Tom asks ""Hi Dr. betters I have an extremely strange question which would have been better private but I will ask your advice it would help a lot. So I noticed in the previous videos you mentioned you played Golf, well I have played all my life I have spent hours on upon hours playing I tried to turn pro it didn't work out, etc but my problem is I was always much better than my results showed as you know golf is a mental game as well physically but my mind would torture me self doubt anger tension all creep in. I was told I need to trust my game more now this is where my question is does Jesus or god have any bearing in sports or golf etc because some days players get them lucky breaks or a player is holing every putt he sees., does god control anything to do with this or is a sport not important to god, etc he would not be worried about a game of golf? It’s just when I play sometimes I feel like the devil holds me back because I have a lot of self-doubts. I know you and many others would say this is not important in life but it’s been a life’s work for me to get to where I am so it means something to me personally to improve to where I know I can be. So how would you stay in the present one shot at a time think positive etc from a biblical standpoint? And is the sport of any interest to God can he control the outcome? Over the years we have seen some unbelievable things in all sports. I would be interested to hear your point of view. Thanks, Tom"
