Nobody else has won 4 Golden Balls. Argentine Lionel Messi netted an astounding 73 goals in 2012, and won the best world soccer star for a record number of times.
And perennial runner-up Xavi Hernandez bowed out with humility. But the voices calling for Xavi to win at least one Golden Ball are many and loud. He’s very much a part of the reason why Messi does so well: he threads passes 
through nettlesome defensive lines perfectly to the feet of the forward magician.
And who won the last World Cup? Spain — thanks in large part to Xavi, who 
admirably pays respects to his Barca teammate. Alas, the accolades go to goals.
Service — as always — gets overlooked by the world. Xavi provides the service of brilliant play-making, masterminding 
the game, unlocking stalwart defenses with dizzying and dazzling footwork.
If you want to be great in the kingdom of God, you must serve everybody. God will be rewarding servers. It won’t be a “world” cup though. It’s either gonna be a Heaven Cup or a Win-the-World-for-Christ Cup.
