All In

Football tailgating is an “all in” stadium activity. Arrive early with the cooler, the grill, and the food. Hours later, the game begins. On Memorial Day, we remember those who were certainly “all in” for our country. They gave heart, soul, and mind. Their lives were taken in death. One year, our school had the theme of “All In.” The banner hangs in the gym. Life in Jesus is not just getting your “tootsies” wet, it is a jump off the end of the pier — splash. That is the beauty of maturing. We have the opportunity to explore new ways to love God totally. “All In,” we leave behind some shyness, inhibitions, and distractions. We joyously dance in the presence of Jesus who is “All In” for us!
