Spiritual Lessons From Boogers

One thing I have "experienced" as a soccer coach for 6 year old boys is that boogers are fascinating. Boys love picking their noses. What really grosses me out is when they pick the booger, stare at it on their finger for a minute, and then EAT IT! (This makes me want to blow chunks!) How can they think something so GROSS can be good????? I mean we parents and coaches KNOW that its wrong and disgusting! It seems like no matter how many times, or how many ways we try to instill in them that BOOGER EATING is BAD, they stop for a little while, but then return to their old ways.....

Shift gears with me.... Imagine God as our "Coach" and we are the players... eating boogers (whatever your gross habit is). God tries over and over, through many methods, to instill in us that our activity is disgusting. He is trying to help us live HUGE, without yukky stuff getting in the way.

Learn from the boogers..... Let's quit doing the things that disgust God (by the way, those "boogery" things are called SIN).

Live loud, live intentionally, live BOOGER FREE, and love God and people with every word and every action!

Only you would find some spiritual relevance in booger eating.

Can you write a new blog. I'm a little disgusted with this title still showing up on my blog. It's driving away business.
