Life is not a Contest in Getting to Heaven



Life is not a race to get to heaven.

It is not a competition to see who can out perform another.

It is not a competition to see who had it the worst or who had it easier.

There is nothing competitive about it.

There is no competition in heaven and there is no competition in getting there.

If there were any hint of competition in it, it would be this alone:

How many others can we help along the way - lift, encourage, feed, clothe, offer hope, make smile, brighten, show kindness, comfort and love.

How wonderful it would be for all of us to take the Gold Medal in that event!

How pleased would the 'Master' of Ceremonies be to award such an honor!
