Tractors are designed and made to pull trailers and different attachments that allow it to perform the job(s) it was designed to do. When plowing a field, a disc is used to prepare the field. Before taking it to the field, the farmer makes sure it is fit for service—well oiled, blades sharpened and attached correctly.
Being a great crew mate means pulling your own weight in the crew. We have responsibilities on and off the field, during meetings, and during the week. During games, be ultimately responsible for your position and realize sometimes you may have to help, or be helped, but get back to pulling your weight in your position.
2 Peter 1:10 Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall.
This verse teaches those whose salvation/belief is in Jesus will show evidence of their salvation by continuing to believe in Christ and manifesting good works. These works are evidence of our faith.
In officiating, we show our devotion to our crew in the way we handle our business. On and off the field, we need to take care of our responsibilities. Even though we make mistakes as officials, the chances of falling (or failing) is greatly decreased by pulling our weight.
Our success in life is measured in what we do after we do what we are suppose to do.
