Jesus On Ice

Nope, it isn't the latest musical production or theatrical preformance. It is actually something I saw when I went to a hockey game against my school's biggest rival. A bunch of people came to watch, in fact a quarter of the hockey rink was filled with students from my school. On the team are a pair of brothers, one being the goalie and the other being a player. They amaze me in the way they conduct themselves. In their life they have experienced hardships, one of which includes the death of their father. As I was watching the players come onto the ice for the playing of the National Anthem, I noticed the goalie bowing his head in a prayer-like manner. As the game progressed to the end, the goalie's younger brother scored the last goal of the game. It brough the team to a wonderful win. When the team was huddling around him in congratulations, he pointed towards heaven in a thankful manner. In that moment I realized that these brothers are such a blessing. They brought Jesus onto the ice.
