In addition to the date, which had an impact on Tebow, what happened in these football matches showed Tebow’s belief in God.
During the Florida National Championship victory in 2009, Tebow wrote “John 3:16” on his eye black that he wore that game.
After Broncos’ exciting comeback over Steelers three years later, a bronco PR -person Tebow made some statistics associated with that of the Bible verse.
“Just before I walk in this big room packed full of media (after the game), there are all these curtains out front and I stand in front of. Patrick, our PR -guy (with broncos), stepped in front of me and said, ‘Timmy, are you aware of what happened?’ And I’m like ‘Yes, we just beat Steelers, we have to play the patriots.’ Like yes, I know what happened to a guy who happened as why (did) you ask me such a silly question and he goes, ‘No, do you know what happened?’ “Said Tebow during a recent performance on the” Shawn Ryan Show. “
“And I like, ‘I thought I did, Patrick, what happened?’ Because you could just see this different behavior. And he said ‘no, no, no, you are not aware of it. “

“And he said, ‘Timmy, during the game, your yards were at Rush 3.16. Your yards per completion were 31.6.
Tebow was surprised when he realized God had sent him a message.
“I don’t think I had the reaction that many people think I did it because I went from a high and a party and a joy of a conviction and a disappointment. Why? Because when (Patrick) told me I knew God was never convinced of me and said,” Timmy, you thought tonight about a game. You thought it was about all these things. It was never just about a game. I did not die for a game, ”said T Tebow.
“And I was so convicted, still grateful that God would use something, but doomed man, my eyes were on the wrong thing my heart was in the wrong place. I knew you I knew what you had done, but still my heart was here and my eyes were here. I knew the truth just wasn’t focused on it.
Tebow explained that he would win the game to prove doubters wrong, and he would win it for the fans and his family who supported him. However, Quarterback said it was “selfish” reasons, and that his “eyes” and “heart” looked at the wrong things.

These “selfish” ambitions took him away from where God needed him to be, and the former Broncos -Quarterback said that verse John 3:16 is the “greatest love story” of all time.
“That verse means to me it is if you want to summarize the love of the gospel, which I really believe when we talk about the gospel that it is the greatest love story -Redging mission ever. Tebow said.
“When we look at John 3:16 for God, then loved the world he gave because he loved us so much with this love that it honestly is hard to even fathom. But when we talk about the love in Greek, the four types of love, but the most admirable form of love that love is Agape love. interest. “
“And he was acting on our behalf and he went to the cross not only for us, but instead of us. And he loved us so much that he gave his only son, like the one who would believe him, would not be lost, but we cannot have an eternal life. Man, I know we put it on bumper stickers and the eyes and characters and games and games and all, but we can not lose the essence of what it means.” “

“That there is a God who created all this and spoke it to existence like this, and yet God with all knowledge and all power would say ‘I love you so much that I will give what is so precious to me and my son, and I will give him in exchange for you because I love you so much.’ So when you think of John 3:16, it’s Um, there’s no greater love.
Tebow played three seasons in the NFL, two with broncos and one with the New York Jets.
The former quarterback soon has a new title: Dad. Tebow and his wife, Demi-Ligh, announced that they are expecting their first child, a baby girl, in March.
