YOU WIN!


 To the Christian:
If you believe or feel like your life is in shambles,
Take a look at the man whose life is scarred and tormented in sign
All welcomed with open arms, for their eyes see delight
The flesh contests no war 
Because of the choice to pursue after temporal artifacts
To them, living in sin is the new "IN"
But they're too blind to see they did not win- the gods of this world did

So to the struggling Christian, keep pressing towards the mark of excellence
When You feel like giving in because it seems like you only harbored in vain
Take a look at the sinner and realize that YOU WIN
When the drunkard abuses his common-law spouse:
YOU WIN because God saved you from that mess!

When the drug addict hits the streets- homeless- searching desperately for another sniff: 
YOU WIN because God did not let you drink out of a drain reeking with moldy water
Instead He gave you shelter and saved you from that mess!

When you see a promiscuous woman hogging the block, anticipating the arrival of a man that she may call her lover 
Because all she wants is security but all he wants is her body and so- the exchange begins:
YOU WIN because God fills a hole that no earthly being an fill and His love comes without compromising your body filthily
 

YOU WIN! Yes YOU, YOU WIN!
When the teenage mother cries out because her child is hungry and she regrets the "result" of her one-night stand
Oh how she regrets, that her life is put on hold just so her money can be consumed by her seed
YOU WIN because God granted you His salvation and grace in the nick of time!
All you need to do is have faith and let Him do the rest- He will direct your path

YOU WIN! Because you did not die 
YOU WIN! Even when the pain makes you cry
YOU WIN! Through your shifting He will restore new life
YOU WIN! YES, YOU WIN! And if you for a moment do not for a moment believe in this theme-
Imagine trading places with a soul already tasting the fires of hell!
YOU WIN! So just give Him praise 
YOU WIN! YOU WIN! Yes You- YOU WIN!
