You see, by 5:00 on that day the Falcons will have already defeated the Saints in their season opener and you'll want to talk to somebody about Matt Ryan's incredible day and you'll want to share how you knew all along that the Falcon defense would step up at just the right time. You could be sitting on this bench (with Reason #1 and Reason #2) talking football...and who knows, someone may even sit there with you, which would make it a little less weird than you eating pie, drinking tea and talking to yourself.
After a while the conversation may even turn to something more meaningful like your story, God's love for you and your story, and your future. It is possible that for someone everything changes right here on this bench on that day. Someone may find a fresh start. Someone may embark on a bold adventure. Someone may find a real friend.
It's not just a wooden bench, it's an invitation to something better.
Love this :-)
