Happy Friday

April 24, 2026 — Devotional
Scripture — 1 Peter 1:18–19 (NIV)
“For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.”

Reflection:
Peter draws a sharp contrast—between what fades and what endures. Silver and gold carry value in the world. They represent effort, achievement, security. But Peter says your redemption was not purchased with any of that. Not with something earned, traded, or accumulated. It was purchased with something altogether different—something personal, costly, and irreversible.

“The precious blood of Christ.”
That word precious matters. It speaks to weight, to worth, to something that cannot be replaced once given.

And notice what you were redeemed from: “the empty way of life.” Not just sin in the obvious sense, but the deeper pattern—living for things that cannot ultimately hold you, satisfy you, or secure you.

This reframes value. If your life was redeemed at that cost, then your worth is not fluctuating with performance, comparison, or outcome. It is anchored in something already paid in full.
It also reframes direction. Redemption is not just rescue—it’s reorientation. You were not just brought out of something empty; you were brought into something purposeful.
There is a quiet steadiness in that truth. You don’t have to prove your value today. You live from it.

Prayer:
Lord, thank You that my worth is not tied to things that fade or fluctuate. You did not redeem me with something temporary, but with something precious and final. Help me live in a way that reflects that truth—not chasing what is empty, but walking in what is lasting. Anchor my identity in what You have already done, not what I am trying to achieve. Let that shape my decisions, my priorities, and my peace today. Amen.

Amen

Thank you for your learned opinion Dr. Sprig

Just an opinion
No Dr recommendations from me
Kevin Simon said something similar

I really do think if he would’ve came back and played the last few games it would have shown he was healthy and good to go

Hurt his knee in January right?

Sept is 9 months

With Modern medicine and surgery, knee injuries don’t generally take that long to heal like in the 80s and 90s

Zz had surgery early march and returned for the first game of bball

 

[Vol423]

Zero is a stretch. It would have helped some, maybe not a slam dunk though

It would have changed absolutely nothing about his medical prognosis of a possible degenerative knee condition.

 

[UTK]

Blanco been the most consistently solid SP this year

Yeah I have faith in Blanco but I had to tip my hat to Khuns that was dominant

 

[jave36]

It would have changed absolutely nothing about his medical prognosis of a possible degenerative knee condition.

If he showed it wasn't currently affecting him negatively, it would have helped.

All of you saying this crap haven't actually read the stories about his medical reports from NFL teams. It has NOTHING to do with his ACL injury or the rehab of that injury.

 

[Vol423]

Wrong...because that injury is NOT what NFL teams have flagged in their medical reports.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Vols gonna win the Magnum match?

Not playing hurt his stock
Plain and simple

K Simon said the same thing

He should’ve played
If he did he’s already drafted

Hopefully he plays his ass off and makes big money now with whoever drafts him

If he is that injured then he will be lucky to get drafted which sucks bc he was really damn good before the injury

You guys that are still butt hurt and have an ax to grind over last season continue to make crap up to make yourselves feel better.
