I just got my Seattle Seahawks, Super Bowl Champions t-shirt in the mail yesterday. I have been dreaming about this t-shirt since 1984. That’s right, for a solid 30 seasons in a row I have been disappointed by the team I support and root for. But not this year, this year the Seahawks are what I have always known them to be, the best. I’m still waiting for the hat, coffee mug, and Blue Ray DVD of the season to arrive. I’m finding that there is no limit to celebrating and commemorating an event that turns disappointment to rejoicing.
Luke 15:3 Then Jesus told them this parable: 4 “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? 5 And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders 6 and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ 7 I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.
Can’t wait to see our names on Jesus’ world championship T-shirt in Heaven.
Enjoy the day,
Adam
