The Rainbow Wig and John 3:16

Do you remember those times as a kid when, while watching a football game, you would see a crowd shot and that guy in a rainbow wig holding a John 3:16 sign? What’s that all about? Now when you turn on College GameDay, signs are everywhere. Everybody has a message, and everyone wants to get noticed.

Social media is the “rainbow wig and John 3:16” sign of our day. It gives everyone fingertip access to blurting out their message so that those in their circle of influence can know exactly what they are doing, where they are going, and what they are thinking. Add the selfie photo, and you’ve got a great chance of being noticed.

John 3:16 declares that you have been noticed already. It states, “This is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.” The beauty of the message of the guy with the rainbow wig is that God noticed you out of a crowd and declared his love for you by giving his one and only Son to pay for your sin. It’s the best deal going, and when you grasp that message, it will change your life.

Have you taken Christ as your Savior? If not, simply pray, “Lord, I admit that I am a sinner in need of a Savior. Please forgive me for my sins. I take Jesus as my Savior, believing he died for me and rose again. Lord, come into my life and save me, I pray. In Jesus’ name, amen.”

This is how God loved the world: He gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in him will not perish but have eternal life.
