VERNON RACING Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 THE RACE OF LIFE The race of life is much like the one on the speedway We get caught up in all kinds of situations every day. The green flag is waved when our small heart starts to beat The checkered is waved when it’s time for our Lord to meet. Between those who flags we must run the race and be strong Even during times when everything seems to be going wrong. Sometimes we make it and sometimes we wreck That’s why we need to keep our life and soul in check. Sometimes we get black flagged and end up loosing a lap It may seem wrong, totally unfair and we took a bad rap. But the Great Chief Steward in the sky knows the deal And we just have to trust Him with a faith that is real. Sometimes we mess up and break the rule We end up feeling like some kind of fool. We can become a better person if we really try And be ready for the final inspection in the sky. Sometimes when we loose, we don’t want to ever, ever come back Then we work on our attitude, and once again return to the track. The race of life is not easy and we have to keep doing our best When the Final Checkered Flag is waved, we want to pass the test. Victory lane is for those who finish first and win the top prize We must finish the race of life and do what’s right in God’s eyes. We must keep running every lap No matter what set backs we may face. We will be a real winner if we don’t quit But go on to finish life’s race. RACE DRIVERS PRAYER Lord, we ask your blessing on the race we are about to begin and on the drivers who will challenge each other on the speedway. Watch over them and let them be enriched by the challenge. Ride with them and guide their hands and hearts. Bring them each and everyone of them safely to the checkered flag as you guide us all in our journey towards life’s checkered flag. Amen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
