Jamaica College wins double...

Author: Daynes Journey Posted under:


Jamaica College easily defended its Walker Cup title today with a 3-1 win over Bridgeport at the Constant Spring football field. In the first half it was an even affair, but JC put on the flair, to come away with an easy win... It should be noted that it was the first time that JC has won the double.


JC will now attempt to make history again, when they turn their attention to the Oliver Shield.....

JAMAICA COLLEGE LIFT MANNING CUP TITLE...

Author: Daynes Journey Posted under:

Ashani Walker


Led my the Ashani Walker, JC captured the 2010 Manning Cup with a 3-0 whipping of Waterford. All the talk of the match being highly competitive did not materialise as JC dominated from start to finish. Playing without two of their top midfielders JC used their familiar passing game to demolarise Waterford. Waterford's star player Andre McFarlane was given little room to dribble and this in effect stopped any creative plays from Waterford.


JC will now focus on the Walker Cup final on Wednesday, where they will face Bridgeport. JC will go into the match as favorites, but that match will not be easy. Bridgeport has never beaten JC, and they will be looking to do so this time. However, JC has beaten Bridgeport twice this season and they will be highly motivated to win another Cup. JC will welcome back top midfielder, Greensword, who will add more push. His spot may not be automatic as Campbell, who was Greensword replacement in the final put in an excellent performance in that game. JC captain Walker will be expected to bring his usual flair for this game.


My prediction: JC (2) Bridgeport (0)

Lessons from sexual sin...

Author: Daynes Journey Posted under:
"but I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart." Matthew 5:28


It is very interesting to hear some of our men in the church today. They speak on the pulpit about sexual sins, and lo and behold their closets are full of the acts of the sinful mind. Jesus warned that even the thought that one configures in one's mind is adultery. Now I am by no means stating my innocence from these behaviors, because at times, I too look.


In my own life I have fallen by the wayside of what God expects, but I have recognized my deficiencies and I am working hard to correct them. My issue is persons who I know that God will judge, because we shall all be judged, but persons continue to preach one thing and practice another. I have sat in conversations where brothers accused brothers of adultery, yet in their own lives they are doing the same. This for me is just downright hypocrisy. Jesus warned that, "for all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world" (1 John 2:16)


The world has consumed the church and its people. Sexual sin has broken into the house of God and its frightening. In my own life, I have learnt that you have to be so strong these days. The media and the influence of the wrong people can lead you down a road of sexual sin. The morals of society have broken down to a point where not even a women will respect the fact that a man is married and vice versa. Therefore the rise of sexual sins have reached new levels.


In Canada for example, a lot of people are no longer getting married, they are just living together, the so called common law relationship which is growing rapidly in North America. Sexual sin is alive and well.


The bible is always speaking out against sexual sins, and its time that we all take it more seriously. There is a battle between the spirit and the flesh, and the flesh seems to be winning. I have come to realize that I have to keep fighting it, it can't become a norm and eventually acceptable behavior. I have to remember that whatever I conjure in my mind its the same as if I committed the physical act. Let's all look deep into our hearts today, throwing out those things that block our relationship with God. This is one of my challenges and I am working on it daily. If something is blocking your relationship with God, my humble advice is to get rid of it, I have had to do that myself several times and there is more to throw out...


"Therefore consider the members of your earthly body as dead to immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and greed, which amounts to idolatry." Colossians 3:5

Ashani Walker...

JAMAICA COLLEGE INTO MANNING CUP FINAL...


Jamaica College led by inspirational captain Ashani Walker made it to the Manning Cup final yesterday after a 4-1 win over Bridgeport High on penalties. The win will go down as one of the best ever in recent time, as JC having been reduced to nine players showed guts and grit into dominating the entire match and scoring a perfect 4 out of 4 in their penalty kicks.


Having watched Walker for over 4 years from his junior days, he is truly a gifted and talented youngster who should be encouraged to play at a higher level. He may be slender in build, but his creative genius makes him one of the most outstanding mid fielders in Jamaica.


JC have now made it to two finals, having already qualified for the Walker Cup final where they will face Bridgeport again on December 1, 2010. They will now meet Waterford next Saturday. That match will be considered a grudge match, as Waterford beat them 1-0 in the preliminary stage. JC are on track to win three trophies this year, and they are motivated and ready.
