Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me?

Fair is fair. If professional athletes are going to give credit to God when their team wins, it’s only right that they point the finger at Him when they lose.

Enter Buffalo Bills receiver Steven Johnson, who missed the game-winning catch in overtime during yesterday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. After declaring himself “devastated,” Johnson took the time to log onto Twitter and file the following grievance with the Almighty:

I PRAISE YOU 24/7!!!!!! AND THIS HOW YOU DO ME!!!!! YOU EXPECT ME TO LEARN FROM THIS??? HOW???!!! ILL NEVER FORGET THIS!! EVER!!! THX THO …

I’m not sure which part is better: Johnson’s stunned sense of betrayal, his apparent belief that good things are his rightful due for praising the Lord, or the veiled threat that he’ll “never forget this!!”

You just wait until You find Yourself needing a favor from Steve Johnson, God! Then You’ll really be sorry!

Hey, Steve, a little tip: If He was really in your corner, He wouldn’t have allowed you to be drafted by the Buffalo Bills.
