God's Boston Glee Party?

October 31, 2013

"A Boston Glee Party" was the banner headline on the Sports section of the Sarasota Herald Tribune  announcing the Red Sox had won the World Series. Did you get the pun?

Ten years ago, almost to the day, the Sox won their first world series in 86 years. I mused then, "did God smile on the Red Sox? Was it because Curt Schilling tucked a cross inside his shirt when he pitched or was it David Ortiz pointing skyward as he crossed home plate after each homerun."

Did you notice yesterday what David Ortiz said when he received the Most Valuable Player trophy?
He first thanked God.  Or was it the signs in the stands that read, "We have faith," that brought God's favor?

"I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed-Nothing will be impossible for you."
(Matthew 17:20)
