God has his people everywhere. Many vocations are more important than football. But regardless of what it is, when God gives His people a platform to stand on, and a voice that can be heard, He expects them to represent Him faithfully. When they achieve something He calls upon them to give Him glory. You may not have as many people watching you as pro athletes, but innumerable angels, saints and the Lord himself are watching. And that raises the question: what are you doing to honor Him, and to give Him credit for your successes, in your own unique sphere of influence? - Randy Alcorn
This comment was in response to a question about Christians in Pro Football, but it applies to all Christians.
He has placed all of us in a place and time in this world for a purpose. Its not an accident that you and I were born when and where we were. We may not be able to see God's total plan for our loves with our limited vision, but God sees the beginning from the end and has no limits of time. He has a plan for your life and my life.
