Last night, like most of America, I watched the superbowl. Instead of watching it at my house, or at a friends house, this year I watched it at my church. As I sat there, other than the noise from the actual game, I could hear the chatter of the people sitting around me and the yells and screams of “GOOO” or “YESS.” As I reflect on the game, the memories made and the events of the night, I am amazed to think about how this one game of football can bring so many people together. It is estimated that 97 million people watched the super bowl last year, 97 million! The unity of American, and possibly Europe on one Sunday night is awesome.
“May they experience such perfect unity that the world will know that you sent me and that you love them as much as you love me.” John 17:23
Can you imagine the effect on the world we, as Christians, could have if we stood united for one cause? That one cause being to show the world that God, their savior, loves them as much as a father loves his son. It would be absolutely astounding.
Every day, I try my hardest to show the world God’s love through my actions, my speech, my way of life. Are you?
Be Bold. Live for Him. Take a stand.
