Kicker anyone?
Get Ready: Matthew
6:33 33 But (A)seek first (B)the kingdom of God and his righteousness, (C)and all these things will be added to you.
Get Set: Lord
help us keep our focus on the right target….You. When our relationship with you is right,
everything else is in order also. Help
us to pursue you and to “aim straight” in life and coaching.
Coach: Can you imagine being the kicker for the
Miami Dolphins on Sunday in their OT loss to the Jets? He had the chance to win the game with the
Jets twice. Not once, but twice. You have to feel or the guy a little!
How would
you like to be the kicker? There is no
way I want that job! Everyone in stadium
has their eyes on you as you line up to kick that odd shaped ball through the
uprights, at a distance usually greater than 25 yards, with 11 guys on the
other side trying to stop you. If you
miscalculate in the slightest it can result in a miss. Think about the wind,
the holder, the snap, the grass, etc. That
is a tough job, but a critical one.
The kicker,
like us, needs to make sure his aim is true.
The guys on the other side are Satan and his band of demons. The people in the stands are people who see
us daily. What is at stake you
ask? The least little miscalculation and
you miss it all – Heaven. Seek the
kingdom of God daily and you will not miss the mark. The loss is far greater than just a game, it
is eternal life. Check your aim. Go get’em for Jesus!
