Gary Ablett turned on the TV one night and his life changed forever

Just beginning to emerge from his father’s sizeable shadow in his early days at Geelong, Ablett’s on-field success was in contrast to where he found himself in his personal life.So a young man who had been raised in a Christian home before drifting away from the church in his teens decided to pray.

“The program rolled straight into another show that touched on the second thing that I was really struggling with. “But that night, as my simple prayer was answered, the series of events led me to truly believe that God was speaking directly to me.“From that point, I began not just reading the Bible, but studying it, because I wanted to learn and understand more about God and his character, rather than relying on other people to tell me.

“I always tried to make it clear to my children that it’s OK to want to do well in your profession, but it’s more important to understand that your self-worth isn’t based on how you perform at work, it’s in who you are as children of God and as sons and daughters of their heavenly Father,” Ablett Sr said.

More of a mental breakdown and a cry for help than a talk with an imaginary friend!

Good on him & everyone has some sort of belief in something

What garbage
