Post match analysis

If you have ever watched 'Match of the Day' or a similar sports tv show, then you will be familiar with the post match analysis.

This comes, obviously, after the game has been played when a pundit, player or manager, shares their view on how the match has gone for their team.

A succesful manager may give a review along the lines of, "our training paid off, we stuck to the game plan and it was the result we deserved". On the other hand, the manager of the loosing team may say, "we didn't get the run of the ball, we didn't take our chances and the other team simply out-played us".

In 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Paul is writing a letter as he sits in jail expecting his life to come to an end at any time, and he provides us with an analysis of his life to this point.

The passage can be found here: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2%20tim%204:1-8&version=NIV

Paul states with assurance that he has "fought the good fight ... finished the race ... kept the faith".

When we get to the post match analysis of our lives or even looking back on what we've done so far, can we all say the same?

Have a great day

God Bless
