"Game Of Life"

 

We didn't lose the game,

we just ran out of time....

Oh could it be with life....

enemy or friend, of mine?

 

The clock of life is ticking....

our anger boils about....

another day has passed us....

our smiles we lived without.

 

How many days ahead....

will steal away our joy...

because of what we ponder...

our peace it will destroy.

 

Will there come a time....

when we push away our pride....

Will there be a day....

when it matters not whose right?

 

We waste away the days...

that could turn into hours....

We think we have tomorrow....

we're strong within our power.

 

One may think it's "this way,"

Another thinks it's "that."

But does it really matter...

who wears the winning hat?

 

Cause if our hearts were open....

the love we have would flow....

and flood onto the enemy....

to help us warm his soul.

 

It matters not whose right...

if "Love leads you"....this I know....

There's nothing Love can't cover....

if one is willing to let go.

 

The hurts we have are many...

and sure we've caused a few...

There's things that we would change....

or things we wouldn't do.

 

But we cannot make another....

feel a certain way....

One can only show the love..

that's within their heart today.

 

We will not lose the game....

if we can only comprehend...

and cherish every moment...

until the very end.

 

We may not always score...

but we can say we tried....

Let's give love while we have it....

it can't be given when we die.

 

 
 
For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love which you have shown toward His name.    
~ Hebrews 6:10 ~

Once there was a ball team who wanted so much to win the State Championship.  They had worked so hard for years.  They practiced to be the best they could be.  They were a united team. Nothing could hold them back.  They had such a great reputation, most everyone knew they would take the winning trophy home. Besides, they had made it this far, so why wouldn't they win & cross that victory line.

 

The game started and their fans were on the edge of their seats.  But when the last buzzer rang, this united team had one less point than the other team and the look of disappointment covered the fans faces.  When the media interviewed one of the players & asked him about losing, this is what he said:

"We're not losers.....we just ran out of time."

 

So it is with life.  We may be on a team today, or we may be in a family, or be united in some kind of way with someone else.  Then out of nowhere a ball of "pain" comes out of left field and we take the biggest blow we've ever had to face......did we deserve it? Maybe, maybe not.  But one thing is for sure, when time runs out we won't play again.  So hit the ball, tap it, smack it, hit a home run.....swing it anyway you can...swing it with tears if you have to...just don't lay down the bat.....because one day........there will be no time to play.
