Good morning, God
Winning and losing, winners and losers dominate the headlines around here these days, Lord. We are in the midst of all the basketball finals, especially locally. These games are planned for, the players are up for them and the fans come out for them. When they are over, some go home elated and some go home disappointed.
Lord, as we think about winning and losing, we remember that you are with all. You rejoice with those who rejoice and mourn with those who mourn. You remind us that the gifts we used to win come from you and that even if we lost; we still have your gifts. We are reminded that you favor neither team nor a particular player, but that your encouragement to “do your best and never give up” is your cheer.
So, Lord, may we always seek to do our best and never give up – in sports, in the game of live and in the relationships of faith.
In Jesus’ name, Amen
