Finish strong...

Our Daily Bread
Ever watch sporting events where you hear a coach or player say "OK, let's finish strong!".  The team may be winning or losing.  The individual may be winning the race or in last place.  Finishing strong is important!

The devotional talks about living our lives in a way so that we "finish strong" for our Lord.  We don't know how long we have on this earth.  We don't know when Jesus will return.  I understand how difficult the concept of "finishing strong" is for most folks, including myself.  It seems reasonable and attainable to "finish strong" for a defined period of time like the last quarter of a football game or the last few miles of a marathon.  Finishing strong for an undefined period of time can be exhausting and frustrating!  Our Heavenly Father can help us if we just ask!

Lord, please help us "finish strong" for you! 

Movie Monday
I didn't get to the theater last week, but I watched some old movies on Amazon Prime.  Are you familiar with Amazon Prime?  The service includes several features including free two-day shipping on Amazon.com orders, one popular book per month, and a large library of streaming movies and TV shows.  I watched Expendables 2, Safe and Hook last week.

Expendables 2 and Safe are both fun action movies.  Check them out when you get a chance.

Let go, my friends!  God will be there to catch you and hold you in his loving arms!
