Family, today many people (specifically in the USA) are gathering with friends and loved onesāsharing food, laughter, competition, and celebration.
As followers of Jesus, we donāt step out of our faith when we step into everyday moments like this. We carry His light with usāinto living rooms, conversations, and even friendly rivalries.
Scripture reminds us:
āLet your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.ā (Matthew 5:16)
And also:
āWhatever you do, do all to the glory of God.ā (1 Corinthians 10:31)
Whether your team wins or loses, today is an opportunity to model joy, kindness, humility, and good sportsmanship. We can celebrate without tearing others down, enjoy the moment without losing perspective, and reflect Christ in how we speak and respond.
As you go about your day, consider:
How can I bring peace, joy, and grace into the spaces Iām in today?
Enjoy the time. Enjoy the people.And rememberāno matter the score, God is still good, and His Kingdom is still advancing through His people.
