If you've been alive this week, you've surely heard the name Tim Tebow. He's the Denver Broncos quarterback who not only has had some incredible overtime wins this year- but with some very unique statistics, beat my Pittsburgh Steelers last Sunday.
Frankly- the Steelers played badly for most of the game- but in overtime, Tim threw an 80 yard pass that allowed the Broncos to win the game and continue their playoff run. Tim is a committed Christian. He has openly spoken about and sported the verse John 3:16 for years. Interestingly enough, he threw for 316 yards in Saturday's game. He set an NFL playoff record with 31.6 yards per completion and the Television ratings on CBS peaked between 8:00 and 8:15 with a rating of- you guessed it...31.6.
So what's this all about? Is it pure coincidence? Fate? Luck? Or God? Many of us have been talking about those options throughout the week and we'll talk about them Sunday morning- no matter what happens between the Broncos and the Patriots this Saturday night! There are some fascinating biblical lessons in every circumstance.
Speaking of Saturday night- remember that the new 50+ Primetime group meets here in the Great Room at 6:00. I hope you signed up for it, and will be with us as we find out how we can use the time and resources God has given us to make the most of this time of our lives.
I'll see you this weekend!
