Comment on It’s Just a Game! by Kristan

That’s exactly what I said just yesterday evening. Who cares? People’s lives are completely controlled by ballgames. I don’t even think they realize it. Pearl did wrong. I will admit that I, as a woman, was moved by his apology, but I also asked myself, was he truly sorry or was he playing the part because he got caught? Only God knows his heart. Like you said, it is just a game. I promise life will go on and years from now people will say who’s Bruce Pearl? There are more important issues in life like are you born again? Are you going to Heaven? Where will you be when the Lord comes back? At a ballgame?

Very thought-provoking words! We need to be as “real” for the Lord in the small things as well as the big things.

This is so good! And I believe that if we try to live close to the Lord….His still, small, voice will ALWAYS let us know when we start to waver. So we must always listen and not allow ourselves to harden:)

Comment on Sports as Our god by Kristan

Very sad, but very true. I have been guilty of it myself. Not necessarily a UT football game because I personally hate the Vols (hearing the gasps), but other things in my life. TV has played a role in taking my time away from the Lord. People don’t think of television as a god, but it is. I’m so glad the Lord understands that we are human and that He has so much mercy on us. Where would we be without His mercy and His grace? I love Him so much and I’m glad He loves me. It just makes me desire to love and worship Him so much more.
Very good post and reminder of how gods (idols) can take us from Him.

Comment on Do We ‘Really’ Love the Lord? by Joy

That is a really good thought. The church attendance bothers me too. It’s amazing how people put EVERYTHING ahead of going to church. But then, sometimes I wonder how I would be if I had been raised differently. It’s just what we do on Sundays, but if I had been raised going to the lake every Sunday, I guess it would look totally different to me. It definitely IS a command, but I have to remind myself to speak the truth “in love” to others. It’s easy for me to be impatient with baby Christians who just don’t “get it” yet. I know that’s not really what you were talking about, but that’s just where my thoughts went. Love ya!
