As a Germany fan, I didnt care whether they won with a goal scored by a Christian, Jew, Muslim, atheist, or goat-sacrificing shaman. But in a word of flabby spirituality, in which a number of professing Christians can use faith as a crutch and then fade out in difficulty, its refreshing to find someone for whom spiritual trust is centered, honest, and rooted in proper perspective. Translated from Germanys Bild regarding World Cup game-winning goal scorer Mario Gotze of Germany: And not only is the momentum surging upwards in Gotze’s world. He also holds to God in tough times, as he demonstrated at the beginning of the year as he went through a severe injury phase at Bayern Munich, in which he held on to his faith. Even for a time he was on the edge, asking whether he could go to the World Cup in Brazil. And what made Gotze move on during this difficult time? He posted a photo on Facebook: Dear God, I would like to see a one minute time period. Not to ask about something. But just to say a big thank you for all that I have.
