Enthusiasm for God, sports is disproportionate

Editor,
I am always amazed at how people act at sports events — yelling, clapping, jumping up, stampeding, fighting and much more; think about it. My question is, "Where is this energy when it comes to God?" If the only time a scene of any kind is made over God is in church, really, what good is that?
I recently placed a challenge on the people of Texas, who so desperately need rain, to stop the sporting events and pray that Nate, a tropical storm, would come drench the land and end the drought. The storm sat in the Gulf completely still for three days; not one person answered the call. They even thought I was goofy; well, I am goofy — goofy for God.
We have to stand up and be cheerleaders for God. What upsets me the most in this is how nature and the animals are suffering at this lack of boldness. The storm is moving west.
