Recently, I was reflecting on my career in the Navy and where I am today and suddenly had this vision prior to going to bed.
i was in a boxing ring losing every round that I fought. I was beat up pretty bad, but held on to the 12th round when I finally heard the bell ring indicating the fight was over. Knowing that I did not win a single round, and by the way I looked, the score cards were easily indicative that the boxer I fought against got the victory. At that moment, the referee for the fight grabbed my hand and the hand of my opponent and told us to stand in the center of the ring for the decision to be made by the judges to who won the fight. The verdict was announced that the fight was won by a unanimous decision (The winner is Tim Sparks) and at that moment the referee raised my hand in front of the crowd Needless to say that I was stunned by the judges decision. I immediately leaned over to the referee and said, did they see the same fight and could I have a few words with the judges, he nodded and said go ahead, they are right behind you. I turned around and asked the three judges “Did you see how many times I got knocked down” and as soon as I finished my question, I received my answer, the three judges turned out to be, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. All three answered me in unison and said : We did not count the number of times you fell down, but counted each time you got up”
I hope this minsters to all who read it in some small way. Love ya all.
