I am going to say who I want my life to be like and talk about who is already striving to be more like Him. I know there are a lot of people who love Tim Tebow and others who don't. I will say this, there are a lot of football players who are picked on skill alone and get themselves arrested for different reasons. I wish there were teams that would pick there players on skill and on the life they lead. Tebow has had his ups and downs all season just like any other quarterback. I believe he has gotten better as a quarterback throughout the season, going from having his time in the last couple minutes in the fourth quarter and winning games that way to being able to win a game throughout the whole game. I know it's not just Tebow but the whole team that has won or lost the games, it's just I'm talking about Tim Tebow right now. I have read how he lives his life off the field and that is the part of him I really admire. The way he cares for the sick is also the way he cares for the unsaved. I have seen his family's page and saw that growing up his family went on all the mission trips during the summer to the Phillippines (sp?). From afar I can say he is doing what is says in the Bible for us as Christians to do...strive to be more like Jesus. Jesus is who I want to be like. Tebow is a great role model for kids to look up to. I know Tebow knows how important it is to be a role model to younger generations I think I remember him mentioning it somewhere. Anyhow, I know the Bronchos lost last night but do not despair, Tebow is still doing the work of the Lord and working with the sick and the unsaved in the way he knows how.
In John 13:34 Jesus said, "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another". (NIV) Above all Christians need to show this characteristic of Christ, but a lot of non-Christians turn away from Christianity because we do not show this characteristic enough. Of all the commandments that was given love was the greatest. Love is such a great thing, it can turn a bad day into a good day. That's how Jesus is also! One thing that really needs to be remembered is that it's not Tebow that's so great, it's who is in Him that is so great. Let me also say Tebow is letting God work through him. "To make You known, to make You seen, To be Your hands and to be Your feet. Oh I want to be a revelation of love. Oh I, I want to make the invisible God - Visible." (lyrics from the chorus of the song "Visible" by 4Him).
