Then I thought a bit more. I still think the Springer show is a bit of a circus. But those people are someone's kids, someone's neighbor, someone's co-worker. I doubt anyone ever planned out their life thinking, "You know, I hope my life is such that I get on the Springer show. That's my new goal." It just happened, first with a small bad decision, compounded by another and another and suddenly that very regular person is now qualified to be a guest on Springer.
Springer guests are Someone's Loved Ones too. God loves them. God sees the mess, the hurt, the fighting, the drama, the stripping, the shouting, the train wreck that is Springer. And he looks through it all to find those kids of His that He loves.
Imagine how much love God has for someone on Springer.
Just as much love as He has for the neat and tidy family down the street.
Just as much love as He has for the regular factory worker.
Just as much love as He has for the pastor of a thriving church.
Just as much love as He has for the struggling Christian trying to make sense of His life.
Just as much love as He has for me.

God has as much love for all us losers, too. More than we can ask or imagine.
And for you, too, sweet man. Keep hanging on.
Shalom & Cheers, Joe.
God came to earth for us losers! Sometimes we just think that we are either better or worse than the other losers in the world. Actually, we are all in need of God's love and that is just what we get! And don't let anyone tell you different.
