misrepresentation

monday night dave dew and i were working on my basement. that seems to be the gist of most monday nights since we’ve bought our house, but it’s gotten better since MNF started.
anyone who knows me knows that i pride myself on being a giants fan…and that i love giving jets fans a hard time. never malicious, just like i do mets fans:) after david and i finished a wall, we thought we deserved a little sit down football time. 1st quart ended and farve was getting beat up by the chargers DEF pretty bad, i felt a touch of compassion for the team and their fans b/c i know what it feels like to root for a team that just can’t seem to put it together.
then david and i saw this picture flash across the screen…all my compassion went out the window and tons of laughter ensued in my basement. i was alomst worried i was gonna wake up the kids we were so loud. the J-E-T-S! JETS! JETS! JETS! is the chant of all chants for jets fans…just just too bad they can’t spell it right.
it did make me think though, how often are we so excited about being recognized that we mess up who we are representing. how often am i falsely representing Christ to people i don’t even know are watching?
Lord help me to look like you at all times so that whoever is looking on will be blessed and see you.
