Blameless in Seattle
Son of a street preacher. All-State high schooler. All-Southwest Conference and two-time All-American at Baylor where twice he snared 35 tackles in a game. NFL Hall of Fame. 12-years as the Chicago Bears’ iconic linebacker. 1,488 tackles; half were solos.
Meet Mike Singletary.
So serious about following Jesus Christ is he that, this human earthmover and Kim honeymooned at a Christian conference!
Once I asked Mike, “What was the key to tackling some 1,500 ball carriers?”
Characteristically, he wastes no words: “I feel where the pressure’s coming from, then explode in that direction.”
Like Mike, St. Paul drives the truth home: “You were His enemies, separated from Him by your evil thoughts and action. Now He has reconciled you to Himself through the death of Christ and His physical body. As a result … you are holy and blameless as you stand before Him without a single fault.” (Colossians 1:20-21)
As you face your Maker, do you feel holy, blameless and without a single fault? Well, you are if you’ve put your trust in Christ.
Game on!
