Jesus on the Golf Course

It is THE sports highlight of the year for me -- watching the Masters on the weekend, especially on Sunday afternoon. After enjoying another scrumptious meal with Susan, Shannon and her boyfriend, Al, I settled into my favorite chair in the den. Except for snoozing for about 20 minutes or so, I stayed there for more than four hours watching the lead change six teams.

Our son, Aaron, had to work until about 4 P.M. at his new job as a waiter at Outback Steakhouse. But he came over long enough to join me in rooting AGAINST Tiger Woods (aren't four green jackets enough?)

What a thrill to witness this humble 31 year old from Iowa win the tournament. And the proverbial icing on the cake was hearing Zach Johnson openly declare his faith in Jesus. Wow! Jesus was walking around Augusta in Zach's body and His Name was proclaimed on Easter Sunday.

Now what sports event can top that?! Much better than bowling ( : ) ), Nascar and even the Final Four.
