TEBOW-ED

Someone in church Sunday told Joelene that the pants she had on reminded them of Beyonce.  We’ve been saying since then that she got ‘Beyonced.’  I told her next week she might get ‘Latifah-ed.’  (Look it up.)

It got me thinking about what it would mean if we made adverbs out of people’s names like that. 

Like if you got ‘Trump-ed,’ it might mean you had a really bad hair day.

If you were ‘Cowell-ed,’ maybe you just got verbally hammered.

If you were ‘Bieber-ed,’ either you’re a really cute person or you’re really annoying - or both.

If you got ‘Gibson-ed,’ you’re having another baby (he has seven children).

If you got ‘Situation-ed,’ you need a time-out to cool down and relax.

If you were ‘Sheen-ed’ or ‘Lohan-ed,’ it would mean you needed some serious counseling.

If you were ‘Gates-ed,’ people would consider you a great charitable giver - or if you were ‘Jobs-ed,’ you would be thought of as tremendously innovative.

If you got ‘Tebow-ed,’ you would be a person who wears his faith on his shoulder.

If you were ‘Ga-Ga-ed,’ it might mean you were really unconventional and unpredictable.

Then again ... what would it mean if someone got (insert your name here).  If someone were ‘Taylor-ed,‘ what would it make people think of?  Would it mean they had style?  Would it mean they were blessed by words of kindness from someone else?  Would it mean someone had just criticized you?  If it was your name, would it mean someone was a great prayer warrior - or they had a positive spirit under difficult circumstances - or they had great faith? 

What would it mean to have your name attached to something where everyone thought about you when it happened?

And be blessed.
