Unjumped Chips

A life-size game of checkers.
But there is no king.
Never the option to move back.
Whatever chips are left unjumped will remain.
They remain unopened doors,
unexplored options.
They will always be could haves,
some of them should haves.
But there is no king.
Never the option to move back.

Choose Life

Tomorrow is my last day as a youth minister at Avondale Estates First Baptist Church. As I prayed tonight about what should be my final words to my students, I turned on my phone's recorder and just started talking. The words the Holy Spirit shared with me are worth sharing with you.
