God Loves Sports

I was talking to God today 
and I was curious if God 
liked sporting events 
and which team he would favor. 

God quickly answered 
that we are created in his image 
and just like us 
he enjoys sporting events.
 
The particular thing he enjoys 
about sports is when people 
involved practice good sportsmanship, 
love and respect for their opponents. 

He told me he 
doesn’t care who wins 
but wants us to be good to each other 
during these contests. 

I asked him if he felt 
the same way about mixed martial arts contests.

He let me know 
he did not like to see 
men in fighting contests 
with hate in their hearts.

But he said fighting contests 
in a righteous way was noble.

God is really rooting for us
he wants us to be holy 
and treat each other with love and respect
In sports, in love and in life.
