More Than Football



Winner of the Heisman Trophy. Quarterback for the Florida Gators, Tim Tebow goes in the mission field. He is the child of Missionaries.

I just heard about Tim's Christian missionary work while watching a Gators game last weekend. What an inspiring story - he sees his witness for Jesus as more important than football.

A great message for all of us - we are here not for ourselves, but to give praise to the Lord. Tim has special talents that have enabled him to achieve greatness as a football player. We are blessed with special talents as well. What we are given gives us the privilege to share them with others for the Lord. Use what you have and where He has placed you not for yourself, but for Him.
