Connecting force
13. July. 25

Football manages to unite people from the most diverse continents, nations and cultures. These days, thousands of people, equipped with the flag of their nation, flock to the stadium to passionately cheer on their team. As different as the cultures, customs and religions of the many people are, they are all focussed on football for the upcoming 90 minutes. Everything else seems unimportant and secondary at this moment.

When I see the crowd, where old and young, rich and poor, women and men cheer on their team together full of enthusiasm and emotion, it reminds me of a biblical text in the Book of Revelation (Revelation 7:9-12).

There John describes a vision in which God showed him heaven. He saw a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation on earth. And they stood together before God and worshipped him.
We are all equal before God. Regardless of our origin, our gender or our social status. God personally invites you to be part of this diverse and vibrant crowd.

Jesus says: “Believe in God and believe in me! For in my Father’s house are many mansions.”

John 14:1-2
