Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. 2 Corinthians 2:15
The US is in a frenzy over sports once again with the NCAA Brackets and Sweet Sixteen for basketball. I thought well why not come up with a Christians sweet sixteen to coincide with the round ball sport craziness.
Savior, wellspring, encourager, eternal, truth. Supreme, I Am, X-tra ordinary, Teacher, Everlasting, Emmanuel, Nazarene. There you have it. 12 words describing our Lord and savior built upon the words Sweet Sixteen, who knew round ball could have a Biblical connotation?
Don’t let sports be your entire center of existence whether it is football, baseball, basketball or a host of many other ones. God created the ability for these athletes to excel and hopefully give Him the glory when they do. Don’t let any sport become your God. Enjoy then for entertainment but the sport you need is ‘running’ hard after God. Just do it!
PRAYER: I want to follow hard after you. So much in life takes you out if the center. No matter what Lord you get first billing. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
