Romans 12:10. “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.”

USA Hockey Team player, Jack Hughes with the golden goal that put them over the top, said, “This is all for country right now. I love the USA. I love my teammates. It’s unbelievable. The USA Hockey brotherhood is so strong. I am so proud to be an American. Tonight it was all for country.”

It truly is unbelievable. The USA In 1980 beat Soviet Union. They had to wait 46 more years for a Gold Medal and it was a true patriotic moment.

When asked to describe his emotions about the win Jack said, “That’s American Hockey right there.” God must have been pleased with the way Jack, who made the winning goal, honored his country and others.”

The USA goalie, Connor Hellebuyck, made 41 saves during the game. Everyone doing their part earned the team win. The United States medal count was 33 this Winter Olympics with 12 gold, 12 silver, and 9 bronze medals. It was so refreshing and made you want to tear up, to hear someone share how much they loved their country and being an American.

Me too, Jack, and it was an honor to watch the USA Hockey team win a gold medal in the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Also, God bless America, this is a land that I love.
