Eight pairs of eyes looked intently at the screen. “You are special because you belong to me.” These words came from the book, turned short film, You Are Special, by Max Lucado. For six weeks Sports Academy staff held the SHINE course for our new netball recruits. During the course we discussed our value, the power of choice, our decisions, potential, purpose and more. To go along with each topic we did facials, planted seeds, and designed collages, just to name a few. When discussing that we are priceless, we watched You Are Special. Something that stood out to the girls was that we are special because we BELONG to God. What a powerful truth to hear and to understand! Our girls face many pressures and it was a privilege to speak truth each week. We trust that as they pursue their dreams, wither it be a business or building an art museum, the seeds that were “planted” will grow strong and bear fruit, and we will see these young ladies SHINE no matter what comes.
