“Good morning world, as I blend my A Daily Celebration journal reflection in with the adjoining scripture please read (Joshua 1:9) This is the guiding light and life changing verse that I have researched and picked to highlight my blog post today. Likewise, please enjoy my coordinating original Merry Mary blog thought that ties the scripture into my new A DAILY CELEBRATION book/journal quote which is as follows (Now wondering about the games you are playing. Is the game of life really a game? Or is it possible life is not a game that can be played! And being afraid you can’t play the game, while not knowing what games you are playing, those are all guiding insights into how you manage the things happening in your life. That’s why, to avoid losing, remember as you play the games of life, you won’t win the games you play, if you think life is a game! So, Stop playing your games! And as, you let Jesus Christ lead the way, every day you’ll feel like a winner at work or play. So, knowing life is not a game that can be played. In everything you do be Strong, and Courageous. Do not be played. Do not be dismayed. And to be happy…. stop playing your games.) So thinking along those lines, with football now on your mind, as we have been chatting about playing the Game of Life. Knowing as we keep getting closer to the end of the line that LIFE IS NOT REALLY A GAME. Meaning that right now you are RUNNING OUT OF TIME in different ways. With some of you thinking that LIFE IS A GAME. Let’s keep thinking along those WIN AND LOSE ways. So, on your away back home as I keep writing about the GAMES WE PLAY. While you are waiting to answer the Call THAT WILL DECIDE IF YOU WIN OR LOSE THE GAME. How long will it take for you to learn how to PLAY BALL! And knowing that one day you will be playing the Biggest END Game of them all. While realizing you are either heading for THE RISE OF SOMETHING WONDERFUL! Or HAVING NO BALLS… you will be on your way to THE FRIGHTENING FALL. Thinking that play along way…while writing less about football, and more about YOUR BALLS OR LACK THERE OFF. One of the first Game Day thoughts that keeps coming my way will always be, as you are playing ball…. WHAT GAME ARE YOU PLAYING? Okay over all what Team are you on? And are you on the winning SIDE OF LIFE? Or HAVING NO BALLS are you LOSING THE GAME OF TIME while playing on the opposite WRONG HELLISH BEATEN side? Then still thinking about Playing Ball as you are RUNNING OUT OF TIME. While NEEDING TO HAVE BALLS TO WIN THE GAME OF LIFE. Thinking about life like it’s a game. A GAME THAT YOU HAVE TO HAVE BALLS TO PLAY! DO YOU HAVE THE BALLS TO PLAY THE GAME! And as you are going out and about, are you a homerun hitter or are you a strikeout stinker? Do you catch those fly balls, or do you just let them fall to the ground? Do you run around and touch all the bases, or do you just stand there in the tag out falling down? And as, you are playing ball on Earth, while GOING UP OR DOWN heading to Eternity….. Consumed in doubt have you ever wondered….. WHAT’S THE GAME OF LIFE ALL ABOUT? Yes those are all guiding insights into how you handle the things happening in your life. That’s why, to avoid disappointments, remember as you play the games of life THAT WILL NEVER BE A GAME…OR A GAME THAT YOU SHOULD PLAY you won’t always be able to win the games you play. But having a strong positive attitude as you let Jesus Christ lead the way, every day you’ll feel like a winner at work or play. So, in everything you do be strong, and courageous. Do not be afraid, dismayed, or discouraged because trusting in Jesus Christ’s will….. for your life, sorrow will be over, and contentment will follow you wherever you go. But wait what if you don’t feel that way? So, knowing that there are ONLY two ways to Play the GAME OF LIFE overall THAT WILL NEVER BE A GAME. Likewise realizing as you rise or fall LIFE WILL NEVER BE A GAME AT ALL. Are on your way to THE HELLISH FALL. Are you side lined waiting for SATAN’S LAST CALL? Or seeing things the right way, are you on the HEAVENLY Starting Lineup having a ball! And playing the GAME OF LIFE every day, are you catching the ball thrown to you… or are you dropping the same? Are you making the touchdowns, or are you going the Wrong way? And those are all great Winning and Losing on your away back home questions to ask day and night. Because in the GAME OF LIFE…. THAT WILL NEVER BE A GAME! You must know if you are a Winner or Loser before your sight fades away! That means, you must know if your FINAL INNING time has come or gone? SO, PLAYING THE GAME OF THE AFTER LIFE WHICH TEAM ARE YOU ON? And DO YOU HAVE THE BALLS TO PLAY THE GAME as you go long? Well, that all depends on HOW you are Playing Ball every day! Because everything depends on HOW you are playing the game! But more importantly everything depends on HOW things are going! And HOW things are going depends on….. WHO IS COACHING you all your Life Long! So, needing to know WHOSE TEAM YOU ARE ON! As you are learning the plays wondering if you are a Winner or Loser today…. To make sure you know how TO WIN THE GAME OF LIFE too. With time running out on the clock for you. You must also know what INNING AND ENDING are coming up soon! Bottom line, while PLAYING THE GAME OF THE AFTER LIFE ARE YOU IN THE HEAVENLY HOMESTRETCH OF THE FINAL HOME RUN? ARE YOU ON YOUR WAY TO THE WINNING HEAVENLY TOUCHDOWN? ARE YOU HEARING THE HEAVENLY TEAM CHEERING YOUR NAME! ARE YOU WINNING THE HEAVENLY GAME? ARE YOU BREAKING THE DEMONIC TACKLES, AND NOT FALLING DOWN? ARE YOU ABLE TO TAKE SATAN’S PAIN THAT’S COMING AROUND! LIKEWISE, ONE MORE TIME DO YOU HAVE THE BALLS TO PLAY IN THE GAME OF THE LOST AND FOUND! BOTTOM LINE, WHILE MAKING THOSE INQUIRIES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH GOING UP AND NOT GOING DOWN! ARE YOU ON THE WINNING SIDE TODAY! Or on your way to HELL are you going the WRONG WAY! Okay, one more time WHILE PLAYING THE GAME OF LIFE, THAT WILL NEVER BE A GAME! What TEAM are you on today! And which way are you going AT THE END OF EVERYTHING! Yes that’s great to know. That’s why, thinking about your soul, my friend…. YOU MUST KNOW what team you will be on at the END OF THE LAST INNINING! That means at the bottom of the Inning, or the End of the game, or in middle of the match THAT’S ALL THE SAME. Knowing that some of you still do not know THE RIGHT WAY TO GO you must know how TO PLAY BALL IF YOU DON’T WANT TO GO BELOW! So, knowing THAT SOME OF YOU NEED SOME BALLS TO PLAY THE GAME. Shore to shore now thinking about your Soul some more…. While realizing that a few of you Still do not know THAT JESUS CHRIST SHOULD BE THE COACH OF YOUR LIFE. Always thinking about your lost soul more than the earthly games you play and catch day or night …. Likewise Thinking about how all the ABOVE has anything to do with ETERNITY’S AFTERMATH at the END OF THE LINE! Are you experiencing the HELLISH agony of defeat? Or are you guaranteed the sweet HEAVENLY relief of VICTORY! And asking you those half and half questions every day. Will you be happy with that LAST HEAVENLY PLAY? Or will you be alone crying at the END OF THE GAME? And, on your away back home in the clash of a Grave Crash after losing the FINAL AFTER match of the game … Will the Angels be CHEERING YOUR NAME? Or in the seventh inning stretch leading to the last call….. WILL YOU BE HEADING FOR A HELLISH FALL! Bottom line one more time, will you be a WINNER on your way home! Or NOT HAVING ANY BALLS, will your Soul be Frying Alive all alone! So, always thinking more about the games you are playing with your soul……. DO YOU EVEN KNOW HOW TO GO HOME! Also, of equal importance to your Final Direction… DO YOU KNOW WHAT GAME YOU ARE PLAYING? Bottom line when you get to the end of the TOMBSTONE LINE will YOU HAVE ANY BALLS TO PLAY THE GAME for the last time? Yes those are all guiding insights into how you handle the things happening in your life. So, knowing those LIFE SAVING answers will ETERNALLY be crucial to your home bound destination and Goals. While, also realizing how to WIN THE GAME will one day SAVE YOUR SOUL! That’s why, on your away back home to be a HEAVENLY WINNER OF THE GAME OF LIFE YOU MUST HAVE SOME BALLS! You must also KNOW THE SCORE over all! And SHORE TO SHORE to know the SCORE while also knowing how to WIN THE GAME OF FOREVERMORE! You must likewise know WHO you are playing THE GAME FOR! Therefore, to go to HEAVEN and to play on the WINNING TEAM at the end of the day. The one thing you need to Know to end your losing streak and to SURVIVE SATAN’S PAIN!
