Here’s my simplistic take on Tim Tebow via my 13 year old son:
My son said that every time he sees someone “Tebowing” it reminds him to say a little for the unborn because of the television ad Tim and his mother made.
That’s a good thing.
That’s really excellent. I’m glad you posted this because I will remember to pray everytime I see Tebowing.
My fear is that Mr. Tebow is probably under severe attack from Satan, because I’m sure Satan does not like it at all when a mere man helps people remember to pray.
So I’m guessing that Satan has a strategy for making Mr. Tebow fall from grace and cause all his fans and foes to become disillusioned with him and with Christianity.
I’m guessing that Mr. Tebow is often confronted with temptations, e.g., beautiful women who want him in the wrong way, opportunities to be involved with mobsters or other criminals, drugs, alcohol, materialism, taking chances with his life (e.g., speeding in a fast car), pride, obsession with physical appearance, etc.
If he yields to any of these temptation, AND if he is caught doing so, which he will be in this day and age when every “star” is constantly monitored by media, paparazzi, and fans, then it will be a sad thing. We expect way too much of our “Christian” celebs. I don’t know how they take the pressure to be “perfect” all the time. The Pope has the support of the entire Vatican to help keep him from saying or doing something “bad.” But football players are surrounded constantly by worldly influences, sinful environments, and excess–it’s tough to stay on the right track.
