I happen to have several football fanatics in my life. At various times when they’re appealed to the Almighty for a victory for their team, I’ve felt the need to point out to them the God probably doesn’t care who wins. In light of Sunday’s Bronco game, I humbly submit, I could be wrong.
After all, God does work in mysterious ways: ‘John 3:16’ Most Googled Term after Tebow-Time Win. And if He’s using NFL football, and Tim Tebow, for a higher purpose should we be surprised?
• 316 ~ yards thrown in Sunday’s game
• 31.6 ~ average yards for each completion
• “John 3:16” ~ What Tebow used to write on his eye black before a college game
• John 3:16 ~ “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”
Who knows if the Broncos will go all the way (but God of course)? I believe that for the Lord’s purposes, the victory over the Steelers – and the amazing statistics – were miracles enough.
