Tiger

All this talk of Tiger's infidelity has me doing some thinking.  Yes, it is absolutely disgraceful what he has done to his family.  And yes, he will have to deal with the consequences of his actions.  As a golf fan, it is disappointing to hear.  BUT, I am not surprised.  I don't mean to say that I had prejudged his character and somehow saw it coming.  Rather, no one is above the power of sin.  Not billion dollar celebrities.  Not your blue-collar neighbor.  Not that homeless woman you see on your way to work.  We are all sinners.  To reiterate, I am not condoning Tiger's actions.  It just doesn't come as a surprise.  Think about it.  There are deep down sins in the past of you and me.  -Some that would be utterly humiliating to tell others about.

Here's the challenge.  Next time you see a picture of him flashed on TV or the newstand say a prayer for Elin, Tiger, and their marriage.

We are great sinners.  Christ is a great Savior.  "God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us."  Romans 5:8
