Sports officials are charged with enforcing the rules as written. We may not like all the rules but our job is to enforce every rule.

Let’s look at some verses that help us to stay on the path of “keeping the rule book of life.”

Jesus Christ is greater than all. By Him all things were created, and in Him all things hold together. Moreover, in Him are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, and He forgives us all our trespasses, reconciling to God all things, whether on earth or in heaven. If we are united with Jesus, there’s nothing more to long for. He really is all in all!
