OK, THIS is the final blog in the Olympic series: the Fiji 7-man rugby team singing a hymn after they won the gold medal:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is BreakPoint’s description, posted August 5:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Normally when an Olympian wins the gold, we see happy tears. We see families back home cheering. We see the pride in carrying the national flag around the field. It\u2019s such a pure moment. It never gets old. So, when the Fiji men\u2019s rugby team recently won the gold over New Zealand, there was something about this that was even more pure and enjoyable.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was the second Olympic gold for the Fijians. They got on their knees, they\u00a0prayed to God<\/a>\u00a0in thanksgiving, and\u00a0sang a hymn of praise<\/a>. It was so beautiful. It\u2019s\u00a0a traditional tune<\/a>\u00a0that contains these words<\/em>,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe have overcome, by the blood of the lamb, and the word of the Lord, we have overcome.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a wonderful moment, and a wonderful reminder, that whether we win in rugby, or anything else, the most certain thing in the world is what Jesus Christ has done for us, not what we will ever do.<\/em> – Breakpoint, August 5, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
