Waynoka Homecoming

Tonight is our local High School's Homecoming. The Big game is tonight and everyone is dressed in the school colors, t-shirts, sweatshirts, (I even have a Waynoka RailRoader's Hat to wear. At the beginning of each game the cheerleaders get all the spectators in the stands to come opn the field for what is called a spirit line. The players when they come one the field run in between us breaking through a paper banner with all of us cheering them on. I have a dream a vision for the community of Waynoka in a spiritual sense. The vision I have is that their is a God loving people who form a "Spirit Line" for me and for you, supporting, cheering, encouraging us on to the field of battle, the Big Game! There is something inspiring about that moment when they are running out onto the field. My prayer? We would all feel that inspiration and have a field full of people in our "spirit line" cheering us on: win or lose, the echoes of their cheers ringing in our ears for us!
