0:00Um,
0:01fire tests the purity of the silver and gold,
0:05but the Lord tests the hearts.
0:07This verse, why is it so special?
0:09Because in my life, for example,
0:11the trial that, that, um,
0:13also change really, um,
0:16my way of thinking was, um,
0:17I was at the national team not long ago was my first game with the,
0:21I didn't even go to the national team.
0:22Rudy Garcia, I was used to,
0:24to be, yeah,
0:25to be a regular starter to play the games and stuff like that.
0:28So he came and the first game I didn't play.
0:31I didn't stop and I didn't come in even when we were losing.
0:34That's where, uh,
0:37I was very angry. I spoke a lot with the,
0:40my friend Dodi there and he told me, Jeremy,
0:44why you that angry? I said,
0:47because it's not normal. You know,
0:49everybody also calls me and ask me like, yeah,
0:52why you didn't play? Why,
0:53like what's wrong?
0:55And he talked to me and he explained me, Jeremy,
0:57like you love God, you trust God,
1:00but you, you say every time glory to God, right?
1:03I say, yeah,
1:04how can you say that you trust God as if there is something,
1:08if you really trust his plan,
1:09why when something doesn't go your way
1:11or the way you think it should go,
1:13you're angry? So if I really trusted,
1:17why am I angry as soon as something doesn't go my way?
1:20And I realised football Was something too high in my heart.
1:25I should be happy already with the sacrifice that Jesus did for us.
1:28I should be happy already with everything I have
1:30because I didn't deserve anything of it.
1:32God should be enough, but it wasn't enough.
1:35That means when, when,
1:37when football, when everything goes good,
1:38oh yeah, that's fine.
1:39But when it doesn't go well,
1:41I'm angry. So I had to put football on the altar and then,
1:45and I humbled myself as well
1:47that moment and sometimes you need to fall down
1:50or you need to have a shock in your life for,
1:52for it to open your heart,
1:54for it to test your heart,
1:56for it to let you see what's in your heart.
1:59I'm grateful for that moment.
2:00That's why you need to be also grateful for when,
2:03when you have some trials in your,
2:04in your life because those trials will,
2:06will make you stronger, will make you,
2:08will make you grow your faith,
2:10will make you even a stronger person. And,
2:12and that moment made me stronger,
2:14put it on the altar because that should be enough.
2:17And that's the
2:18moral of the story that I wanted to share with you guys today,
2:20which is a story that's very important for me
2:23and that changed my life as well.
