They let her on the field!!

I still can't believe that Michaella got to go to the LSU Bowl game this year and they allowed her to go on the sidelines. Here's what happened. We were making our way to our seats and somebody was already in them. It turned out they were a whole section closer. Well, we chose to let them stay and we took their seats in the nosebleed section. A security guard that was helping us resolve the issue came back at half time and told us that he was moved by our kindness and he got it worked out for one of us to go on the sidelines!
(This has been a modern day parable. A story to make a point. A mind picture to teach a lesson.)

Philippians 2:3 "Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself."

FREAKSHOW

Nothing shocks anymore. We have been talking about that, but it amazes me how often I am not shocked by something totally weirded out. I don't think weirded is a word, but you get my point. This world is racing faster and faster to a culturally numb society. We are more tolerant of more oddities today than any day in history. The point of freak for me is this. The world sees nothing as freakish, unless it sees something not focused on self-fulfillment. For example, (again this isn't a complaint) the crime and things gone wrong that are reported in our evening news programs are almost in normal mode when killings, robbery, or the like takes place. They report it, but it's just another day of the same things. However, watch what happens when someone does something extraordinarily unselfish and see how it is covered. It is not only news-worthy, but it is usually the feature.

Jesus said, (paraphrased), your in the world, but not of it. Your not of it because I'm not of it. We are the same team! You live in me...my death and resurrection. In other words, we shouldn't look right here. People don't take a double take when they see guys as girls (vice-versa), tatted faces, pierced parts everywhere..., but they should take a second look when they see you. Well, not you, but your actions. Aliens and strangers. That's what we are.

So how about it? Let's make the feature story and give him the glory:) cya
