Notre Dame quarterback Riley Leonard identified a Bible verse on his wristband after scoring an opening-drive landing throughout Monday evening’s Faculty Soccer Playoff nationwide championship sport in Atlanta.
The Bible verse Leonard identified got here from the phrases of Jesus in Matthew 23:12 from the New Testomony.
The NIV translation reveals Jesus saying: “For many who exalt themselves will likely be humbled, and those that humble themselves will likely be exalted.”
Scripture being quoted by athletes on their sports activities gear, corresponding to wristbands and eye black, is a daily custom in faculty athletics.
For Leonard, this was the verse he needed to share with the world after his massive landing.
Riley Leonard factors to his wristband which says “Matthew 23:12”
