Well if you have watched TV, read the paper or been on social media the name Tim Tebow is well known by now. I have been and will always be a Steelers fan, I will stand behind that team. But that doesn't mean that I can't respect another player. Since the Bronco's beat the Steelers I've had this sense of not wanting to hear anymore about "Tim Tebow and the Bronco's". Then I checked myself....why was it that I was so tired of hearing that name....I realized that it was because he wasn't afraid to show who he really was, on and off the field. So I did some research on him and found out that he wasn't the person who I "thought" he was.
I read an article about how Tim will invite people who are battling life threatening illnesses with no cure in sight. He brings them to the game, talks with them and the whole thing, the whole day, the moments are about these people. He spends his time before the game and after with them. Win or lose, Highs or lows....it doesn't matter. He separates himself from what the "game" is all about and he focuses for that time on them. It's about the relationship and if there has ever been any time in my life that I've realized that it's the relationships that we form with people that matter, it's now. It's not about the game, it's about the people watching the game. It's not about the recognition, it's about what those people need. I was inspired and I was humbled to read these things because I fall so short on actually making a difference in the peoples lives that I come in contact with.
Tim Tebow has it going on, he get's it. He's about the bigger picture, he's about Christ and living for him. No matter what, no matter what other say, do or treat him, he doesn't back down, he doesn't change, it's his relationship with Christ and he lets nothing come between that. It's the greater good. Well played Tim Tebow......
