Super Bowl

So yesterday was the 2019 Super Bowl. Patriots against the LA Rams. Didn't really care who won, as long as it wasn't the Patriots. Yeah, that didn't turn out so well. The stadium was sold out. Over 70,000 people in the stands watching this game. Who knows how many were watching at home, or listening on the radio. The one thing that kept running through my mind was this. How awesome it would be if this  many people got excited for church. They got up, got dressed and went and worshipped and praised the Savior. Supported the pastor. Cheered for the church's success. Got involved in the community through the church. Clapped and high fived everyone for every victory that has been won . Imagine that many people catching fire for God. Wow, would this world be a different place. 100,000 people yelling and cheering for Jesus and His church with as much zeal and passion as their football teams. To take the title from the popular Mercy Me song 'I Can Only Imagine'. I would love for it to become like an Acts 2 church. Acts 2:47 NIV47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. How great would it be if every Sunday the church added people, that when on Super Bowl Sunday, the churches were packed instead of the stadium. It may seem impossible, but consider this. Matthew 19:26 (NLT)26 Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.”
