Let the message about Christ completely fill your lives, while you use all your wisdom to teach and instruct each other. With thankful hearts, sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God. Whatever you say or do should be done in the name of the Lord Jesus, as you give thanks to God the Father because of him.
Colossians 3: 16 - 17
I live in the United States, so we know about the World Cup and pay some attention to it, but nothing like the rest of the world does. The sport that we become most obsessed with is College Football. Our “football” is oblong shaped with two pointed ends.
There are people who display passion for their “team” in almost every way! Team colors are painted on things that can be painted in the yard of their house. Sometimes even the house is painted with a team color theme. They wear team jerseys often and even tattoo team logos on their bodies!
There is a great difference however, between those who are devoted "fans" to a sports team and the ones who actually play the game!
These verses from Colossians 3 talk about the message about Christ “completely” filling your life! Then everything you do or say will be done in the Name of the Lord! There will be no doubt who your team is.
Again, everything you do and every word you speak will inform those who see you or hear you that you are an active member of TEAM JESUS, and not just a Fan!
“Lord Jesus, help me today to be bold and not ashamed to tell everyone that You are my Lord and Savior! May the message about You, Jesus fill my life completely! Praise Your Holy Name, now and forever. Amen.”
