    Great job Grace! So proud that you brought Christ into your letter and are using your public platform to minister to the masses. God bless you as you wrap up (win!) hopefully tonight and get ready for your wedding to the Turk-ster.

    Love what you and Michael have done to spread the good news of Jesus Christ to the world from a university of Oklahoma athletic platform. You make all of us Sooner fans so proud. God Bless you and Michael’s impending nuptials. I pray God continues to bless both of you and your life together. I will always follow both of your ministries. Thank you for your hard work and commitment to the game and the university! Boomer Sooner!! Good luck tonight!! Go get #7!!!

    so inspiring to hear these words from Grace! I don't play softball, i play tennis and in a few months will leave to go play college tennis, and i can be reminded that tennis is just something that i do, but I am a child of God, and i pray that i can reach teammates and others who have not heard of Jesus, because no matter the accomplishments that i achieve, matches i win, i cant do any of that without God, and in the end, those things will leave, but I am so glad to be with God forever!

      What a powerful testimony! Your name "Grace Lyons" is truly no accident! It is prophetic for what God is doing at this time in history. The righteous are (supposed to be) as bold as LIONS! And GRACE is what makes righteousness attainable. So, the boldness of His remnant is what will deliver the GRACE to this generation! Thank you young lady for your grace and for your "lioness" boldness!! Your obedience has changed the world!
