What a Finish!



 It's always been this way...
One person's triumph is another person's defeat...


One person's win, another's loss...
While one celebrates victory, the other suffers bitter disappointment!
 Another highly entertaining Masters makes history, What a finish, what a finish!


 Someday hopefully we can all say What a finish as we get to the end of the challenge...
Praise Jesus, because of His awesome It Is Finished we may all have the victory, not because of anything we have done (save believe) but because of everything(life eternal) Christ has won on our behalf...thus while Christians mourn our dead we know somewhere legions cheer, 
and welcome home the Victors!

It’s not our call
We’re all so small
In the grand scheme of years
That we must trust
Our dust-to-dust
To He who orders spheres

The hierarchy
Of you and me
Is always only this;
A little leap
Of wake and sleep
Before death’s genesis

So, young or old
We should behold
Each gift of day with love
In all we do
Be kind and true
Our thankfulness to prove

Then, when the Door
To Evermore
Makes Awesome Unknown known
Truth will amaze
This world of days
Was just a stepping stone

Yesterday's match was pure sport. 
Imagine getting to the end of life's final challenge to hear
so near...yet so far!

 

Acts 16:30-33King James Version (KJV)

30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
32 And they spake unto him the word of the Lord, and to all that were in his house.
