7=Perfection according to God....

In the bible, God created the world in seven days and according to Him it was perfect on the seventh day. Now, throughout my life I have always considered this number to be perfect if God has said so....

Ok, now to the relevance of this. I know that our football team is not the greatest.....man, what am I saying, we suck. So, our homecoming game starts at 6pm and I decided not to go because even though we were playing a team that was 0-5, I just did not have all the confidence. That was until I decided to see what Andy was doing and found out he was going to the game at 7:30, so not to feel lonely I decided to go.....

Ok, I have always thought that I bring an auora of bad luck to the team I am ruiting for, and sure enough that was tested once I stepped onto our field and surfe enough the other team scored their first touchdown which put them ahead. Damn. So the game goes on and stricking it turns around when we make a miraculous touchdown to put us ahead with a minute and 25 seconds left in the fourth quater. YES!!!! Until, they scored a field goal to tie us up. Overtime. Ok, I was really anxious but not too much because I knew we would win and it would be over in no time.....

WRONG!!!!!!!, Ok, the game stayed tied and we went into the second overtime. Tied again, third overtime. this time, we should have won, but the ball bounced off the field goal. Fourth overtime, tied again, Fifth overtime. By this time, anxiousness was a huge understatement for what everyone, who decided to stay, were feeling at this moment. Sixth overtime. What was funny to me was that all of the points that each team was getting were all through field goals not touchdowns and each field goal were close-calls for us meaning we could have won, but alas. Seventh overtime. At this point, I was praying to God and asking him why this was happening, then it hit me. 7. Its perfection. And my philosophy was correct, WE WON!!!!!!!!

This was indeed the most interesting games/homecoming games that I have ever been to or seen. It was the classic battle between the worst teams going at it, which maybe the reason why it took so long, but who cares, WE WON!!!!! Everyone rushed to the field because it was such an awesome end to a crazy week. Now, I can rest because it truly is over.

You see, there is a God....
