Marriage
I read about people who start as a child with a talent they want to pursue, and they spend countless hours in practice, perfecting what they want to do.
They dance for hours, learning each step, or play the piano, practicing each musical sound, reaching inside to make each day a little better, to become the best one around.
And if they work hard and find just the right time, they may win a contest, get the prize, but for the few who actually make it, a thousand more will try but never rise.
It made me think of how Jesus treated me, when I first asked Him into my heart, He told me I could be made brand new, a winner before I even would start.
For He let me know that everyone can be a winner in His eyes, all it takes is to follow Him, He'll let you know what to do, what to try.
For the lasting prize doesn't come from people, it can't be won or earned, for the gift of belonging to God first of all, is ours to accept I have learned.
When I said 'yes' to Jesus that day, He transformed me, made me brand new, and then He gave me the most wondrous thing of all, I felt I'd won it all when I first met you.
Now I feel like I've won a prize each day, I’m a winner, for Jesus made that true, and every day I live out the joy of being in love with you!
