That being said, faith is real. I have seen it in my daily life. My young children have "faith" in me to act in their best interests because they know that I love them unconditionally. My wife, who is going through an extremely difficult time in her life right now, has "faith" in me to make decisions for her when she can't. Because she knows that I love her and always will. My boss and my coworkers have "faith" in me to get the job done. They rely on me. They expect me to do my job at a high level of competency because they know that my work ethic, in part, defines who I am.

Right now the Broncos players have "faith" in Tim Tebow. The religious ones see the power of Christ in his daily life. They share a belief system and they know he is committed to it. The non religious ones respect Tebow's beliefs because they know that Tebow's religious views, in part, define who he is. It's not fake. That's who he really is.

So...no. I don't see God working through Tebow. I see the power of the human spirit and it is an awesome thing.
