The World Cup began on Sunday.  I love football as much as the next woman, but I do have some interest in this tournament: my brother has lived in Qatar for 15 years and my sons love the game.  In prayer this week some school students asked God to “make England win”, others asked Him to “make Spain win” and one child, with a lot of faith, asked God to “make Ghana win”. God has his hands full. 

“Why do you watch football?” I asked a few of the students while I was on playground duty. “Dunno,” came the reply, “we just love it”.
