Miracle

Once in a while, a movie quote hits you in a way that has nothing to do with the movie.  I unapologetically love sports movies. And I was watching Miracle, the story of the 1980 US Olympic Hockey team. The head coach knew his team may not win. But, Herb Brooks told his wife, what is most important is that they are able to look back on this game and know they left it all on the ice.
And I heard that and stopped thinking about hockey because I want to leave it all on the ice for Christ.
One of these days, our lives will come to a close. And we will all look back on our lives, and the important thing is that we have left it all on the ice. Our best efforts, laid at Jesus' feet. Our treasure, found in Him. Our loyalty, clinging to Him. All of us, given wholly over to Christ. That is what is most important.
