"All of history is moving toward one great goal, the
white-hot worship of God and his Son among all the peoples of the
earth. Missions exists because worship doesn't. Worship is ultimate,
not missions, because God is ultimate, not man.... When this age is
over, and the countless millions of the redeemed fall on their faces
before the throne of God, missions will be no more. It is a
temporary necessity. But worship abides forever."

Here's a cool picture of Blake's soccer team, the Dallas Texans - Houston Division Legend '98.
Blake is number 25, in front, giving us his best game face. The cool thing about this picture is that every kid who got a team picture got to be in the front. It's not really a group shot; The photographer took individual pictures of each kid and photoshopped each kid in the front for the shot they purchased. Very nice.
Blake's team played the first day of a soccer tournament today. It was fun, although it was FREEZING out at the fields. His team won the first game 2-0 against Chivas. Blake scored a goal, capitalizing on a great cross from Pablo. Unfortunately, the second game against Tigres was very tough, and they lost 3-0. Tomorrow they face the Houstonians, which is a very, very tough team.
Go Legend!
Update: They tied the Houstonians 2 to 2, which was disappointing (especially since the Houstonians second goal was off a questionable call resulting in a PK) but the boys played their hearts out in the cold and mud. Well done!
