As tens-of-millions of fans anticipate this year’s Super Bowl game, it might be helpful for all of us to keep the following prayer in mind. This prayer was reportedly delivered recently in a locker room before a football game in Texas.
Lord, we know that no issues of great importance are going to be settled here this afternoon. No souls are going to be lost or saved by the official figures on the scoreboard. No great cause is at stake. It is one of those pleasures which Thou hast meant for Thy children to enjoy. Do not let us spoil it by forgetting that it is just a game to be enjoyed today, talked about tomorrow, and forgotten the day afterward.
Amen!
