Why Not Us? Seahawks Super Bowl Champs!

This is Russell Wilson, quarterback of the Seattle Seahawks

He is a Super Bowl Champion

He is also a man truly inspired a city

His leadership, his ability and his heart to serve others and love God

He has captured the hearts of Seattle 

Finally after a "season of destiny" they brought home the title

There were countless people against the Seahawks

Critics everywhere saying we were too small

Too young

Too cocky

Doing things “different” than the rest of the league

But Wilson kept leading 

The team kept pursuing

Seattle kept believing

Russell Wilson shared a story on Good Morning America about his father would always ask him
“Why Not you Rus?"

"Why cant you win the Super Bowl?"

“I just remember driving in the car with him so many times and him saying, ‘Rus, why not you? Why can’t you be the Super Bowl winning quarterback and do great things with that? 

This got me thinking about how I view my life, my dreams and my God

I put God in a box

I dream too small

I live my comfort zone too often

I live in fear my dreams are too big

I let my critics rule my beliefs 

When did I start thinking I don't deserve His blessings?

When did I start believing He doesn't know my desires?

When did I start believing the world over The Word?

God has ALWAYS showed up

God has ALWAYS filled my dreams

In fact, He didn't just fill them, He created better ones

And the filled those and created more!

God wants you to experience the best life

He wants you to be blessed in this life

That is what God does

That is who He is

He wants to BLESS His children

So, tonight I am going to take a page from Russell Wilson's play book

Why not me?

Why not spread faith, hope and love to children all over the world?

Why not have a marriage that has a platform to change lives?

Why not travel the world spreading the Gods love?

Why not run a charity race in all 50 states?

God has given us all gifts and talents

It is our gift to Him to use them

Why not you?

I don't know if God chose the Seahawks to win

I do like to think God is a part of the 12th man :) 

I do, however,  know that when you have BIG faith, God shows up

I know when you trust God to do BIG things, He shows up

You know why? He wants His glory to shine

This earth is made for His glory

He wants you to be a part of it

Pray 

Dream
Trust 

Then ask yourself 

Why not?

Who knows, you could be winning the Super Bowl someday

" Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more 

than all we ask or imagine, 

according to His power that is at work within us."

Ephesians 3:20 

-----------------------------  

Spent the game loving on my friends little man, along with a couple other little kids
They did great during the game!

Seahawk fans for life! Such a fun group to experience this with!

Roommate! We truly are meant to live together
To say we love football is an understatement
Through it all, all season, ups and downs
Couldn't ask for a better friend!
