The Wolverines at Northwestern

Saturday morning, Pat and our youngest daughter Mary, travel to Evanston, Illinois to watch the Michigan Wolverines play the Wildcats of Northwestern. It's one of our life time goals to see the Michigan football team play in every Big Ten stadium. It's a thrill to watch Big Ten football no matter what stadium you are at. The effort and enthusiasm football players exert to play the game is incredible. I enjoy football immensely and love coaching the sport for the past 21 years. One of the life lessons I get from football is to relate to Jesus Christ with the same effort and enthusiasm I give to the game. Football can lead to earthly praise, but for the follower of Jesus, we seek "a well done faithful servant" from a heavenly chorus. So, at your next sporting event, be enthusiastic and yell your head off. But remember to give your relationship with Jesus the same or even more effort and enthusiasm!
These are the days my friend,
