You gotta believe……

Yep, it is Holy Saturday…..the day before Easter. And try as I may, I struggled very hard to remain focused. BUT my beloved Butler Bulldogs were playing the evil Michigan State Spartans (sorry Allen and Jack) and I just could not resist. We won 52 – 50!

If there were ever a doubt Jesus was alive, this should settle it. Everyone in my mind should double their pledge, as well as their ministry commitment! Who would have ever thought (besides me) that Butler could have come this far? And for all of you who labeled me as crazy, delusional, or even Lutheran…..the Divine joke is on you! We are indeed in the FINAL.

Being the ethical guy that I am, I did not bet on this…..had I done so we obviously would be building a CATHEDRAL. But I will say I am just happy to make it to the end. Amanda and Stephanie are in Florida, Scott was at work, and Ben and I watched the game. I thank God for the opportunity! It has been a great day.

Of course tomorrow is Easter…..even a better day! I will thankfully look forward to what it means as I enjoy the night of a lifetime. I hope to see you all in Church tomorrow!

Goodnight my friends and God Bless!
