Winning is all how you look at it! Go 13

I am a huge fan of football and today I watched, literally on the edge of my seat as the Arizona Cardinalas played Pittsburg. I am sure that Pittsburg was the odds on favorite but not for me. No, my favorite is Kurt Warner. I watched as the season progressed and I watched how he spoke after the game. It was the NFC championship game that Kurt gave all of his praise to the Lord for who he was and how far he had come as a quarterback. That sealed it in my heart for who my favorite football star really was.

I have been an Oakland Raiders fan for nearly 25 years. And I still hold a place in my heart for the black and silver. But, Oakland hasn't done much in the last few years and tho I continue to be a loyal fan there is something about Kurt Warner that means I like his style and his way of giving the grace to God that makes me want to buy a t'shirt and show off the number 13. Knowing what kind of man he is.

I know that Kurt was upset after the loss to Pitsburg. I was to! But think about this Kurt. You brought a team out of oblivion. You brought them from the sidelines to the headlines. No, he didn't do it alone, number 11 helped out a lot and so did every man on that team from the coaches to the waterboy. It's kind of like the Kingdom of God. Each of us plays a huge part in the battle that we fight. Each of us plays a part. Some are seen more than others, but that doesn't make them more important. No, that just makes them on the front page more.

So Kurt this is my word to you. Keep up the fight. I expect that you will continue in the fight whether it be on the football field or on the battle field for the Lords Kingdom. You are truly an original and God sees what you have done. You have been selected to stand up and stand out. You are special! You will probably never read this, but thats ok. God has! This is for the man who wears the number 13!
