Be of Good Cheer
Jan 12, 2025 • Mike Osthimer
Everybody needs a cheerleader in their life.
Someone who no matter what the score is doesn’t
give up on you. The good news this morning is
Jesus is your cheerleader. No one wants to see you
win more than Jesus does.
Jesus doesn’t leave in the 7th inning to beat the
traffic, nor does he get up and join the mass exodus
for the exit even though it’s obvious from the score
you are about to lose the game.
More important than the score to Jesus is you!
As I was preparing this week I read a quote by
Charles Stanley that I think the apostle Paul would
have put on his refrigerator to remind him of God’s
faithfulness. The quote said,
“As you walk through
the valley of the unknown, you will find the
footprints of Jesus both in front of you and
beside you.”
