I'm often tempted to shout what I know and what I feel from the highest seat in the stadium, for all the world to hear. You know...set the record straight. Wouldn't I just love to make sure everyone sees what I see and knows what I know...to ensure that they're judging him fairly and accurately and honestly? But as I've spent the last month studying scripture I find relevant to our life as a college football family, today's verse reminds me there's a better way...
