Congratulations to another God-guy for his outstanding win at the Masters today and for following where Jesus leads his life. It’s a wonderful blessing to learn how to live because one knows how to die.
Stunning win. His second shot on the second playoff hole was nothing short of breathtaking. Kudos to Oosthuizen on his double-eagle. Golf can be so compelling at this level.
Don’t you know the secular elites are turning themselves inside out about a guy named “Bubba” winning the Masters? What the hell’s the matter with these athletes from Florida?
I am so glad a man like this won The Masters and my prayer is that he can reach the soul of Tiger Woods....Tiger seems to be drowning and the only lifeline that can save him is a relationship with Christ......
Oh - he’s a Christian!?!?
I guess the media will start the drumbeat that he’s not really a great golfer and that he just got lucky...
That shot out of the pine straw was just unbelievable! His success on the links is an example of what can happen when one lets go and let’s God.
He will be a great father.
What a nice guy, my hubby said, watch he's going to cry as he is emotional. This article explains why. So glad it was an American that won.
A fantastic win. I still thought Phil was going to pull it out even after a triple bogey.
And when Bubba was missing close putts I thought oh no. And then that tee shot on 10 in sudden death and I figured he was done.
His second shot was amazing, especially after Oosthuizen muffed his and missed the green.

Bubba Watson - golf
Albert Pujols - basball
Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols, who was given an award at the rally for his off-field charitable work, said he thought its purpose was to show that Americans give back, something the Dominican Republic-born star does through organizations he’s founded.
“God’s given me some amazing talent, but I also think that it’s my responsibility to give back to the community of St. Louis as well as to the Dominican Republic,” Pujols said before Saturday’s game.
“I know a lot of people were thinking it was going to be a political thing or something like that. What I heard was ... everybody praising God for the amazing things done in their life, family and the soldiers,” Pujols said.
Complaints had been made about Beck’s holding the rally on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on the 47th anniversary of King’s speech. Rev. Al Sharpton organized a counter-rally on the same day to commemorate the speech.

(sure hope Josh Hamilton can overcome his demons)
What a three days at the Masters!
So many good golfers edging up all the time on the leaderboard.
Oosthuizen played his heart out and nearly won it, Mickelson did fantastic but the triple bogie killed him. Hanson, Kuchar and Westwood always hovering close behind.
Bubba won and it was no lucky break. He played like the champion he is.
Real golf history!
The Americans take it!!!
Ditto on that second shot. The announcers were shoveling dirt on top of Master’s coffin just before he hit it out of the trees and onto the green. He then coolly two putted and won the Masters. At the jacket presentation he was asked his reaction to the win and answered he had no words to describe it as he had not before dreamed this big & had no prepared thoughts.
Thanks! Good news is much better than bad news!
Thank you for a great article!
We must all give thanks for any young man or woman that can take a public stand for the person and message of our Saviour!
“Let everything that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.” (Psalm 150:6)
That would indeed be a wondrous thing.
Definitely worth a prayer for that.
