More Linsanity - I mean that in the best way

Another score for Jeremy Lin.  He's making a splash with the media with his new line of sportswear (Active Faith) and wristbands (In Jesus Name I Play).  Read here.

John 16:24
Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, and your joy will be complete.

Why Whitney?

Oh, Whitney, what happened to you? You've broken everyone's hearts by leaving us so soon. Yes, Jesus loves you, but He probably wanted you to fulfill your destiny before you went to be with Him.  Click here. 

Ecclesiastes 3
A Time for Everything
 1 There is a time for everything,
   and a season for every activity under the heavens:
 2 a time to be born and a time to die,
   a time to plant and a time to uproot,
 3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
   a time to tear down and a time to build,
 4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
   a time to mourn and a time to dance,
 5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
   a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
 6 a time to search and a time to give up,
   a time to keep and a time to throw away,
 7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
   a time to be silent and a time to speak,
 8 a time to love and a time to hate,
   a time for war and a time for peace.

Time for Tebow.

I can't not include a mention of Tim Tebow. What a great witness for God and role model for children. Click here to see an interesting interview.

Here's an article from the Huffington Post.

Here's a photo of Tebow "tebowing" - we have a new English word. Onward Christian Soldier!


Philippians 2:9-11
 9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place
   and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
   in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord,
   to the glory of God the Father.

Lin Love With Jesus

Jeremy Lin Plays for God. I just discovered Jeremy Lin, an NBA basketball player who professes faith in Jesus. Here is one interview with him.

Colossians 3:23-24  
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

"Thank you, Jesus"

This beautiful young lady--I must proudly say from the great state of Texas --was the first contestant on Season 2 of The Voice on NBC. As she was going on stage to sing, she whispered, "Thank you, Jesus" and the microphone picked it up for an estimated 11.8-million viewers to hear.

Psalm 69:30
I will praise God’s name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving.

Maybe Victoria's Secret Really Does Have an Angel

Love this story about this Victoria's Secret model giving up her career as she pursues her relationship with the Lord. This woman is absolutely physically beautiful, and I'm sure she would have had a successful career in modeling. But she will be blessed beyond measure for following God's will and not her own.

Proverbs 31:10
Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing,
But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised.
