Chiefs offensive linemen Stefen Wisniewski shared his faith in Jesus while talking to Jason Romano from Sports Spectrum.
When asked about what the Lord has been doing in his life this year, Wisniewski didn’t hesitate to elaborate.
“It was really humbling being fired, being on the couch,” he began, referencing his time in between jobs after the Eagles let him go.
“I really think God was testing me and trying to teach me humility, just to depend on Him...At the end of the day, my football success is only because God has given it to me. I love Job 1:21, ‘naked I came into this world, naked I will depart. The Lord gives the Lord takes away blessed be the name of the Lord.’”
“I came into this world with nothing I’m going to leave this world with nothing everything I have while I’m here is a gift from God. When it’s taken away from you is when you remember that...We can start to think it’s us when things are going well for a while. I think that’s why God gives us trials like that, to help us remember it’s all from Him. From Him and through Him and to Him are all things. To Him be the glory forever..."
“At the end of the day, it’s been amazing to see that God can do whatever He wants. We can forget that sometimes, right? While we’re waiting we’re like, ‘ah, God, what are you doing?’ But, He can do whatever He wants. He’s all powerful. At the end of the day, it’s our job to humble ourselves before him, follow him, obey him and wait for his timing. His timing is always perfect.”

Good job young man.
Really not that big a thing...the Eagles?
“referencing his time in between jobs after the Eagles let him go.”
Now not only employed, he's on a Super Bowl team. Win or lose, he gets a ring.
Hope they win
They’ll win. They’ve got God on their side.
Well...you known ever since Teebow got ashcanned, God is just all thumbs down on the NFL/mild sarcasm with no offense intended to the Most High
I think he does care about the character of his children who do play the game.
Kapernick and the social justice cr@p coming from the NFL turned me off of football, but this is a reminder that God is working through people like this lineman for HIS glory!
He was unemployed only 39 days.
“They’ll win. They’ve got God on their side.”
I was fixin’ to ask: Does this mean God is rooting for the Chiefs?
“Chiefs offensive linemen Stefen Wisniewski “
He’ll need God’s help tomorrow evening. He’ll be at war with monsters.

Well...40 is a Biblical number.
I knew I wanted the Chiefs to win. This just confirms it.
Amen.
Saying a prayer for this brave young man, now.
