Champions

So we wake up every day - go to work - cook dinner - do laundry - grocery shopping - and maybe squeeze in a little time with God. Sounds like our leftovers. Here God, I will work all day for me and if I can squeeze in a little prayer I'm good to go. Think how sad this makes him.

Our Christian walk should be nothing less than being champions. Champions at home, at work and wherever we are - but champions for Christ. How much effort do we put into our relationship with him? How much do we invest in the one who gave us life, the one who created the universe, the one who DIED FOR YOU AND FOR ME?! It's a pretty tough question to think about - especially if we don't like the answer. But....we don't look at yesterday but to tomorrow. We don't have to look at the past but at our future. Jesus has already taken care of our crappy past sins. He wants us to be champions for him.

I am attaching a trailer for a movie that we just watched. I would highly recommend it to you. When the coach says that he wants them to be forever strong on the field and forever strong off the field I couldn't help but think of this in my faith. God doesn't want me to be forever strong in my faith only when things are going good, but to be forever strong when I face trials. No matter where I go and what I face I want to be a champion for Christ.
