To Lose It All

You can reach so high

Make the boundless sky

Your total claim, your destiny

But when all you grasp is gone

And you’re no longer holding on

To the castles in the air

You will wake up to see

It was never about the win

Because the beginning and the end

Is really all the same 

At the Cross

But after the fight of your life

To demand all your rights

What was it worth if your 

Life is totally lost?

Jesus died to cover every weakness, every sin.

Jesus died to let mercy triumph…

It’s only in surrender

That true JUSTICE wins.

I wrote this after hearing about Kavanaugh not being accepted to teach at Harvard. What incredible lessons we are learning about success this hour. Honestly, our calling in life is greater than a position. I find that people who are vying for the top like all the Harvard students who are persecuting Kavanaugh are going to eventually see an error to their ways. The fight to win rights is always a loss. We are just human and our greatest rights were given by Jesus. Without Him, what kinds of rights would be really have? Our civil society and fight for justice looks very odd these days. It doesn’t look like justice at all. Not when sinners are tearing apart sinners and having no mercy. I’m not sure what people are thinking they can prove. Who among is with a pure slate? If we go around accusing, devouring, and setting people up for failure, then we will reap the devastation of what happens when everyone is considered a loser by society. Maybe that is the lesson we should all learn, though. Without Jesus, we are all losers of truth, grace, mercy, and real life. I’d rather lose my life at the Cross for Christ than have the world affirm me. Praying for Kavanaugh. #nobodyhastherighttotearapartsomeonslife
