A CHEERFUL HEART! “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.”

(Prov.17:22 NLT) A while back, I was driving on my way to a meeting. I was feeling very tired, lousy and aching all over. I decided to start praising the Lord for all he had done for me; forgiving my many sins, giving me a new life within, being a faithful shepherd through my lifetime. I was doing this loudly in my car.

All of sudden, I noticed that all the aching was gone and I felt strengthen. It always amazes me as I experience his grace. I went on to the meeting and had a great time. I had not prayed for help, but had chosen praise and thanksgiving for God’s love and faithfulness; his blessing came.

I had decided to take a cheerful attitude whether circumstances changed or not!

Paul and Silas were in a very difficult and

violent circumstance. (Acts 16:22-31) Misjudged, beaten and put in jail. Yet, in the midst of all this, they chose to loudly pray and sing praises to God. I believe they saw God bigger than all the adversities. There is no indication that Paul and Silas knew what would happen.

They decided to honor God over the circumstances. God turned the bad into good! He can do that! It is a challenge to make this reaction a part of our lives. It not only sets the stage for God to act as he is honored, but it liberates us inwardly.

There can be a sense of inward release; peace and freedom that defies the adversity. Even if the outward dilemma does not change, there is a sense of victory within as we honor Christ. As a Christian, I want this attitude even more in my life. I invite you to join me!

Piccininni gets revenge in Cowboys’ 27-12 win against Iowa Sam Lan e, spo rts r ep orter , @ sam_lan e 1 8

After waiting almost a year, Nick Piccininni finally got his shot at revenge.

When No. 4 Piccininni, the 125-pound starter on the Oklahoma State wrestling team, faced off against No. 2 Spencer Lee on Sunday, it was not the first time the two had met on the big stage.

The pair had met twice before on the mat, with the most recent of the two meetings coming in the quarterfinal of last year’s NCAA tournament, where Lee pinned Piccininni in the second period.

Sunday was Piccininni’s chance to get one back, and he

did not let it slip through his fingers.

With the match scoreless heading into the second period, Piccininni pinned Lee with five seconds left in the period to put a quick six points on the board for the Cowboys.

“I knew that was big for our team,” Piccininni said. “Obviously if you start off with six points it’s always going to carry over. For me it was a big feat and for our team I knew it T.C. Brewster/O’Colly was gonna light us up.”

OSU’s Nick Piccininni celebrates pinning Iowa’s Spencer Lee. John Smith, coach of the No. 2 Cowboys, said the pin in put him away. It’s one thing dual meets.” the first bout caught even him to put a guy to his back and Gallagher-Iba Arena boastby surprise. it’s another thing to pin him. ed a 13,811-person sellout for “I don’t think you expect You gotta give Nick credit, OSU’s(15-0 overall, 8-0 Big that,” Smith said. “He put no question that he started us 12) 27-12 victory against No. himself in a position to find a pinning move and then off the way you look to in big 3 Iowa(14-1 overall, Big 10)

on Sunday, and with Piccininni’s pin starting the match off, the crowd made an impact from the start of the dual.

“We’re so trained and we’ve been in these environments,” Piccininni said. “This is probably one of the bigger things I’ve been a part of. We’ve all been there before so we know what to expect.”

In the following match, No. 2 Daton Fix defeated Austin DeSanto 2-0 at 133.

Fix said that with such a tough matchup, the result of the 125-pound match just before was a big motivator for him.

“It fired me up,” Fix said. “ The crowd was so loud after Nick pinned the defending national champ, and I was ready to go.”

Not only was this a big win for Piccininni against a guy who he was 0-2 against, but it also capped an undefeated regular season for the Cowboy. He is 26-0 on the season, with only four matches lacking bonus-point wins.

He said he has noticed a major difference in his performance this season as opposed to the few prior.

“I’ve been feeling like a different person this year,” Piccininni said. “Confidence level is through the roof, and I just knew I was a little bit different his year.”
