Happy New Year!
I’m sitting here watching the Big 10 lose another Rose Bowl. Oh well. Pac Ten folks are celebrating right?
I wonder why we get so wrapped up in finding our happiness in the success of OUR team. Frankly it’s a bit unfair to force that burden on a group of young athletes, asking them to succeed so we can feel good about ourselves. It’s a burden we should ask of no one. No other person on the planet should ever be expected to provide for our happiness. After all there is ONE who has already taken on the burden for our life, and He is the only one who is capable of providing the joy we seek. Jesus has already provided all that we need to live life to the full, even in the midst of our burdens.
Those who know me know that I’m not big on New Years resolutions. Anything worth doing is doing now! And now is always the time for each of us to count only on Jesus for our Joy. He is the only one who can carry that burden and the only one who should ever be asked.
Oh ya, Congratulations USC.
