True Champions...

I was just wayyyyy toooo tired to blog about the National Football Championship game yesterday. 

Whether you are "Trump" supporter or NOT.....didn't it feel good to watch our president sing the National Anthem at the game? 

Also.........I loved how several times the cameras zoomed in on the Alabama team kneeling and praying before the game.

Whether you were rooting for Bama or the Dawgs............there are two guys that need recognition.

First...Jalen Hurts.  What a show of sportsmanship.  When he was replaced as quarter back at half time.......not once did we see any signs of jealousy.  He encouraged Tua and stood behind him all the way.  Even in his closing remarks at the end of the game.......he was still complimenting Tua.  (And if you have followed his career....you know he always gives God the credit.)

Wow.

Don't you wish that everyone would just do THEIR job and if someone else could do it better, step aside and cheer them on??  But, many times, whether in our secular worlds or in our churches, we see JEALOUSY............which is NOTHING but SIN.

Second....Tua Tagovailoa, as a freshmen had bragging rights..........he was the player of the game.  BUT....never once did he take credit for his talent...............over and over America heard him say, "I want to Thank my God.....and I give Him all of the credit....I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me..."

Wow.

Sometimes people get caught up in their glory and don't stop to realize that nothing is possible without Christ.....  It is refreshing to hear someone give credit where credit goes.

I've already heard the critics............talking about the two guys from Alabama that showed poor sportsmanship.  They are proof that you will always find bad apples in the barrel.  Also....Satan is using those two guys to keep everyone's focus off the PRAYING, the TEAM-WORK & SPORTSMANSHIP and the PRAISE GOD.

Monday night............was a great night all around................because as many of you know....we are from Alabama......................ROLL TIDE.

BUT....the true Champions are the ones I listed above....
