WHAT DOES YOUR LIFE SCREAM?

     What does your life scream? I don't mean like the picture above where this guy is screaming on the top of his lungs, I mean when people see you and talk with you, what is extremely important to you. What is the one thing that oozes out of you wherever you go? What does your life scream?

     Many of you who know me well know I am a sports fan. Unfortunately I have not been to any professional sports games in over 4 years. Just to buy food you need to take out a loan. And the parking? Is there a Night Watchman hired to watch my vehicle when I go into the stadium? $25? Whatever happened to Upper Deck seats being $4? Oh right! That was 1975!! Anyway, whenever I attend a game you always know who the crazy fans are. They are the guys who wear face paint or scream the loudest. I will never forget in 2004 someone from my church gave me tickets to a Jets game. It was about 25 degrees outside. During the game a bunch of fights broke out right in front of my seats. The Jets played the Patriots and Jets fans didn't like being harassed by Patriot fans. There was obviously a lot of alcohol involved and a lot of security guards working bard to break up the fights. I left that game in the 3rd quarter fearing for my life. Watching the many Jets fans walk into the Meadowlands that Sunday I could see their lives all screamed out "We love the New York Jets!" 

     I was recently watching a YouTube video of a guy who is totally obsessed with the movie "Back to the Future." He knew every line from the movie and he had almost every autograph imaginable, even the Principal in the movie. He had his picture taken with many DeLorean's that looked like the time machine and he even paid a substantial amount of money to have Christopher Lloyd (Who played Doc Brown) sign his "Back to the Future" Poster. This guys life screamed out "I love the movie 'Back to the Future'"

     I often wonder what people will say about me when I die? I know that sounds morbid! But seriously, what will people say my life screamed out? Will they say "He was a nice guy" or maybe "He was a great Pastor!" Maybe they will say "Grandpa Lou is now gone also. Oh no!" What has my life screamed out during my 59 years on this planet.I certainly hope it will and always will scream out "I love Jesus!" and "I am proud to be a Christian." In my humble opinion, that is and always has been my goal and THE most important thing in my life. How about you? What does your life scream out. Take some time to think about it!
