🏅 Trying Out for a Team or Recital
Tryouts feel shaky because you care. Practice, pray, and play for God, not only for a spot on the list.

“And whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men,”
Colossians 3:23 · World English Bible

“I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.”
Philippians 4:13 · World English Bible
Glory
“Whether therefore you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”

Parent tip
Cheer the effort and the character you saw, and keep the roster result from becoming their identity.
