Another Championship, Another Lie

Is it just me or does everytime someone thank God on tv after winning something just make you want to throw up. Well maybe not everytime but almost everytime.

I know that i sound like a 65 year old baptist church member who wants people to mature before they convert. But im serious on this one.

It drives me nuts to see people who you would never imagine thanking God for anything in their lives (three 6 mafia, lance armstrong, and rasheed wallace to name a few) thanking God for all that He has brought them through.

But also every year along with that i am sickened by the fact that someone else is going to talk about it.

Instead of talking about it why don't we do it. What if we lived like our life was a tribute to God. That we had the media following us everywhere and they couldn't find a fault.

What if people actually did God size things. I am talking to adults now. Kids dream we dream big. Most of the time to get our dreams crushed by our parents or a sunday school teacher who says you aren't ready for something that big yet.

Well how long does it stinkin take the rest of you guys out there. Frankly, we should see adults who are running successful businesses cuz they were fed up with bad customer service or a mom running a food distribution company because of what her kids were eating at school (by the way pizza should not taste like cardboard)

Where are these people that talk about a miraculous God but only from a third person perspective. Once in my life i would like to see 1 person who the media does nothing but talk about their relationship with God before they succeed and they do nothing but good and good and good afterwards.

Take Mike Maroth (P Detroit Tigers) he lost like 14 games in a row a couple of years ago and all the media would talk about was how did he feel about God now. He ended up losing 21 games that year. Did he turn out to be an all pro, no he's won about 25 games in two years. But i can bet that He was thanking God for every victory along the way and he might not have been i don't know the guy.

But i do know this we need people that aren't scared to take chances with God to let Him lead their passion and go full speed ahead and don't look back.

Think Big! I'm Out!!
