Baptized NFL Superstar Falls To His Knees in Prayer: 'Lord, I Come to You'
By Dreamer
The NFL (National Football League) has been the topic of many controversial discussions as players continue to kneel while the national anthem play to protest racial injustice. Recently, one superstar player switched the entire the game once he kneeled on the football field to pray instead of protest.
Celebrity and star of the New York Giants’, Odell Beckham Jr., one of the best wide receivers in the NFL right now, suffered a serious injury recently. Last season, he broke his ankle and had to stop playing in October, as ESPN reports.
This year, OBJ was able to participate in preseason activities and even start in the Giants’ season-opening game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Although Beckham Jr. suffered a loss on the field in his first official game back, he is winning at life — and he’s giving all of the glory to God.
Following his return to professional football, OBJ captivated the nation with a powerful photo displaying his love and gratitude to God. OBJ credits God for the quick and smooth healing of his ankle injury.
“Lord, I come to you at this time... not to ask you for anything... but just to say Thank You,” OBJ wrote in an Instagram post.
“Mind. Body. Soul. Spirit. God I can’t thank u enough for completely puttin me back together and givin me another opportunity,” the star wide receiver said in an earlier post. “It’s OUR time.”
OBJ has been much more open about his faith after getting baptized in Jerusalem over the summer. See photos from OBJ’s international trip below. Please note: click on the right arrow of the photo album to scroll through all of the pictures.
Praise God! It is so wonderful to see Him working through such prominent names in American culture.
