While attending a football game this past weekend and observing the crowd, I came to a conclusion that football fans are GREAT!! They are soooo dedicated to their team and have a compassion for cheering them to victory! What if Christians had that same dedication and compassion for Christ?!?! What a HUGE difference we could make for His Kingdom if we all took as much initiative in winning people to Christ as we did for winning a football game. Here are my...
Top Ten Ways A Christian Should Be Like A Football Fan
10. Sing a Psalm or Hymn with enthusiasm. Really get into it!!
9. "Shake your pom-pom" when someone receives Christ and is saved!!
8. Stand-up and cheer for the choir as if you had just heard a 'million-dollar band'!!
7. Sport Godly apparel EVERY day of the week like you do football flair. Even tack it all over your car!!
6. Go to great lengths and $$ in order to attend "the game" (church)!!
5. If you can't make it to "the game", you make sure you watch it on your big-screen!!
4. Chat with friends and co-workers about it Monday at work and share your excitement for next Sunday!!
3. Feel a connection and friendship with EVERYONE at "the game" and consider them "Family"! Even the little kid on the back row that just won't be still!!
2. You pay the "Coach" big bucks without complaining!!
1. Feel a sense of pride and gratitude when the victory is won and you have done your part for His kingdom!!
So, get off your bleacher and share the excitement of Jesus Christ with those around you!
Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride in possessions—is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.- 1 John 2:15-17
