Philippians 3:20
But there’s far more to life for us. We’re citizens of high heaven! We’re waiting the arrival of the Savior, the Master, Jesus Christ (MSG)
We don’t have to live this life as if the endgame is just to survive. God wants so much more for us. As the old song goes, “When all the Earth is sinking sand, on Christ the solid rock I stand!” Sin entered the world a long, long time ago. Evil is still running a much. It will continue to run a muck until Christ returns to set all the records straight. However, that does not mean we have to play the game by the world’s set of rules!
Like today’s verse says, “there’s far more to life for us. We’re citizens of high heaven!” We don’t have to stand and take it when the world tumbles around us. We can choose to not let it steal our joy! We can stand on our faith and hope. We can spread love when all the world returns to us is hate. Even when we sit among the rubble of broken dreams and hearts, we know we can rest in His arms and carry on tomorrow.
Your world may not be all Candy Land. However, don’t let Satan dictate the rules to the game of Life. He always cheats by changing the rules and trying to cause Trouble. He doesn’t have a Monopoly on us. We can sink his Battleship any time we want. You are part of the ultimate Connect 4, God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and you. Believe me, Satan will be Sorry in the end when we yell, “YAHTZEE!”
Lord, I am tired of playing the game by the world’s rules. I choose to play by Yours! ~amen
