Life is Like a Sporting Event:

Life is Like a Sporting Event

Life is often like observing live sporting

events.  There are shocks and surprises,

frustrations and fear because we are

unsure of the outcome.  Followers of

Christ can draw comfort, however, from

the fact that though many of life’s

situations are uncertain our eternal

outcome is settled by the work of

Jesus Christ on the cross. 

The apostle John wrote, “These things

I have written to you who believe in the

name of the Son of God, that you may

know that you have eternal life”

(1 John 5:13).

Life may present us with surprises along

the way, but because of Christ’s work we

can have peace.  He has already settled

our eternal outcome.
