Gambler




+

We all play our cards
As best we can
All we're made up of,
For better and worse,
Informing each move

We sometimes play cards we desperately wish we hadn't
We despair at the cards
We did not play instead
Our hindsight a merciless taskmaster
Keeping us fettered to the futility of regret

It is not a new hand we need
 or even a new game,
But faith in The Dealer Who still holds an ace up His sleeve 
Faith in the fact,
 that when all is said and done,
 It is His hand which will play out,
His hand, which so tenderly holds us,
which also holds all the cards
And in the end,

Wins.

"I am the Alpha and the Omega
The beginning and the end,
The first and the last,
I am He."

Revelation 22:13
