Coming up in the 80’s & 90’s there was a Gatorade
commercial that had everyone believing that if they would drink some Gatorade,
no matter the flavor, they would be like Mike, Michael Jordan. You know the
tune...
“Sometimes I dream, that He is me, you’ve got to see that is
how I dream to be…Like Mike. If I could be like Mike”
Now I guess the idea of the commercial was to get people to
drink Gatorade. But in drinking the Gatorade, you would end up with the athleticism
or the ability of Michael Jordan. How many of us tried it. Did it change you?
Could you fly? Did it give you the results you were looking for? I can only speak for myself. NO! So I
probably spent a bunch of resources investing in something that had no effect
on my ability.
Then I was introduced to a man named Jesus. All I have to do
is believe that what He did on the earth, what He did with the Cross, what He
did out of the grave and what He is doing in the sky for me. In that, I can do
all things through Christ, who strengthens me. I don’t have to dream that He is
me because I am Him. I was created in His image. I want to be Jesus like.
