I would a great deal rather lose in a cause that I know some day will triumph than triumph in a cause that I know will someday lose. --Woodrow Wilson
I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing. 2 Timothy 4:7-8
My Mom and Dad died in 2003. If I remember correctly, during both of their funerals someone sang the song, “I’m a winner either way.” The last line of the chorus says, “I'll have my healing here below, or life forever if I go oh praise the lord, I'm a winner either way.” I know both of them held high this testimony while they were alive and in their death. As someone shared with me 1 Corinthians 15:50-58, I could only rejoice in their home going!
There is great joy in knowing if God so desires me to stay here or whether He allows me to take my last breath, I’m a winner either way! Do you have that kind of peace?
