Lord, we have talked about this in the past. I promised I’d change, and for a while, I did. But Lord, You know what happens every fall—Texas A&M football becomes my passion. You’d think that year after year I’d learn, but sadly, before I realize, I’m eating, breathing, walking, talking Aggie football.
How did I fumble my priorities so easily? Did my passion for the Kingdom of God run out of bounds? No! Thankfully, Your Spirit has kept me in bounds, but to my shame, I must repent—again— of my priorities being ‘off sides.’ Lord, help me to go on the offense with the Sword of the Spirit (Ephesians 6:17) and march down the field and defeat the devil to score and expand the Kingdom of God. Renew my passion for clearly laying out Your game plan, the Good News that Jesus came to save sinners and heal the broken, just like You did for me. And Lord, may we all run up the score on the devil in leading others to win the game that counts, eternal life with You.
Thankful You are keeping me in bounds and on Your winning side, Jesus. Amen.
