No Show, Fan or Follower

What is the difference between a no show, fan and a follower?

Where I live it is the Cardinals, Rams and Blues, that is the St. Louis sports teams.

The Blues, I’m not a fan nor a follower. Not only do I not bleed blue but I change the channel when they are on television. Its a no show for me.

I’m a fan of the Rams. I watch their games when I can. I know the big name players names. I have a Rams hat or two. I’m a fan.

However, when it comes to the Cardinals, I am a follower. I not only watch their games but TIVO the ones I miss and I watch the post game show. I know the names of the pitchers and 75% of the team members and even half of the coaches. I know how far out of first they are and where there are in the wild card standings. I have not only the hat but two T-shirts as well. I am a follower.

What about you? Are you a fan or a follower of your favorite sports team?

What about Jesus Christ? Are you a no show, a fan or a follower? Are you just there for the “big game,” Sunday morning worship service?

I  encourage you to be a follower of Jesus Christ. I encourage you to know the score by knowing Him more fully. Read the Bible to know what His team mates have to say about Him. I want you to be in the Club House to pick up on the strategy of the game. Be a true follower of Jesus Christ and hit the ball out of park.
