These lessons aren’t mine – I didn’t watch much of the game, only snippets during commercials. And, when you’re watching a DVD, there aren’t many commercials. Instead, they are from Stephen Altrogge, who posted five life lessons he learned from the latest super bowl. Oddly enough, none of them had anything to do with the national anthem!
Here’s the fifth and final one, with which I couldn’t agree more, being a Lions fan and all.
“I’m grateful that my joy is in Jesus not ultimately in football. Notice I said ‘not ultimately’. I like football a whole lot, and I was dishing out my share of high fives and over-enthusiastic screams when Pittsburgh scored. But in the end they lost. Which stinks. And which makes me glad that Jesus is an unshakable joy.”
