One of the iconic human sports events is about to occur. The Super Bowl. As we close out another year of Covid Football Season (CFS), I humbly ask all fans paying $$$$ to attend the game to do one thing. You don't have to buy anything to do it. It is something you already are asked to do at a football game.
I ask you that during the invitation/command to stand for the national anthem, that you instead "Stand and Pray". Even if you don't attend church, or normally pray, on this occasion please "Stand and Pray".
Why? To acknowledge that human kind did not create the Earth. Humanity did not create the sun. Human beings did not create the air and water we consume daily. Pray for all the things we take for granted every day. Pray for your family. Pray for those suffering. Pray for the homeless and poor. Pray for all the families impacted by Covid. In the one minute and fifty-five seconds that it takes on average to sing the national anthem, "Stand and Pray".
Stand in the stadium. Stand in whatever venue you are at to watch the game. It would be a historic moment if the person chosen to sing/play the anthem simply just let the melody of the anthem play in the background as they themselves simply "Stand and Pray".
After you "Stand and Pray", enjoy the game.
