Jesus and the Football!

The Team Captain

Do you play football? Then you know what a team captain is. He is the best one to get the team into the game. He has the overview, he knows who can be played the best and aligns himself forwards as well as behind.

Not everyone can become a captain. In the majority of cases, the captain has the most experience, the best overview and has naturally the knowledge and required feeling for the ball. Not last, a captain must be accepted by his teammates or else it won’t work.

It is similar in Faith. Jesus wants to be our captain. He best knows and has the overview of our lives and shows us how to go. Without a captain, we as a team would fall apart. He is the central figure and orientations point. Every person on his team has a certain role, all together as a whole and only together can we arrive at the goal.
The comparison is very figurative, but on target.

Who is your team captain?
