What do you think about GOD?? Ok check what Jonty Rhodes feels like

If you are the biggest fan of Cricket, then I'm certain you must've known who Jonty Rhodes is! The world's best all rounder of Cricket. His catches are amazing!!! Nobody knows how he can manage his body balance and catch the ball like that. He is just like a Jumping Shrimp!!

Coming to his faith, one should learn from his ideals. so what he tells here it is:

"GOD was never an ingredient for my success on the field!! My faith allowed me to define my success. I believe GOD had a plan for me to play cricket which is why he gave me the ability to play cricket. My faith in the Almighty took a lot of pressure off me and allowed me to enjoy my game. It is the key to my success.
Am I a spiritual person? Well, people would chide me that I never visited church but I believed that my GOD was everywhere and was not restricted to four walls. I can be equally close to GOD at backward point, as while sitting in the fromt row of the chrch. I draw my strength from my spirituality. It has taken me through the toughest times. Especially when I am all by myself, away from home.

Faith is all there is. Recently, my good friend Hansie Cronje died. It was his wife's faith that took her through this terrible time. I believe that GOD helps you at just the right moments. and I'm not talking about winning a tough game or playing a good bowler. GOD was never an ingredient for my success on the field. GOD IS MEANT FOR BETTER THINGS!

If there is one philosophy I live my life with, it is to be the best that Jonty Rhodes can be, with the talents I am blessed with. I want to be successful in every sphere of my life - be it personal or professional."
