Football Fanatic

When Tebow wore John 3:16 on his eye black during the 2009 Championship game, 92 million people looked up that verse. 92 MILLION people heard the gospel because one man took a stand.

 I know this is a little different from the normal posts I have for you guys but this is something that has been heavy on my heart for the past week. With football season finally here you will very soon, if you haven't already, find out who goes for which team. Our everyday conversations have become consumed by football. Wether its predicting who we think will win, what they could have done to improve or just planning our events that will take place every Saturday for the next four months. Don't get me wrong, I love football season and everything that comes along with it. I just wish that more christians, myself included would take even half the amount of energy we spend talking about football and take a stand for what really matters. Imagine the difference we could make in the world if our twitter rants were about our love and desire to please the Lord instead of arguing with someone because they are cheering for the opposing team. We are called to be on the opposing team. We are suppose to be taking a stand. Don't let your love for the game outweigh your love the Lord. Allow people to see what team you're on. Take a stand.
