A Long Road Ahead

Free Throws for Souls update....

We are now in our 9th hour....Tom is shooting more than 700 shots each hour and he is averaging close to 67 percent of the shots going through the hoop each hour!!  Only 15 hours to go.....

            *******


Tom still has a long road ahead of him.....Tonight when we all are resting well in our comfortable beds, he will be shooting a basketball straight into a hoop and along beside him will be two or three rebounders, plus a counter.....

This is what I call SACRIFICE!

I can promise you that Tom's feet are going to be tired...his arms will feel heavy....his grip will become weak and he will begin to feel his limitations.   He will more than likely feel the pain for many more days ahead.

The good news is......GOD IS HIS STRENGTH.


Be of good courage, He shall strengthen you.
Hope in the Lord, He will see you through!

God will fight the battle during Tom's weak moments....God will carry him through.

Thank you Lord!

  6. What an incredible accomplishment and sacrifice. He will be paying for this for some time I'd imagine. My body would give out after a couple of hours. God bless him!
