Olympic glory

Watching the Olympics, it’s easy to get caught up in the color and pageantry. You see people who have traveled long distances to support their teams. You watch the athletes struggling to win, not just for themselves, but for their country.

I get jealous sometimes. I find myself wishing that our nation had a flag and colors to rally around. I find myself wanting to have a team so that I could point and say, “Look, that’s our people. Kingdom of God. That’s us.”

Then I’m reminded that the glory of our Kingdom doesn’t come from us. It comes from our King. That’s why we’re part of the greatest nation on earth. Not because of us. Because of Him.
