One chance

I played alot of football when I was growing up,mostly touch football in the street.Frequently though,we had "big games",when the older guys would play,and they would let us play with them. There were a few of us who were about 10 years younger than them. I think they let us play just to make the game bigger,and sometimes to even out the teams.In just about every game with the big guys,they would say" Let's throw the boring kid a pass".(Yes,even way back then I was boring) I had to be ready,I never knew when my one chance was coming. It didn't matter if I made a great catch or dropped the ball,one chance was all I got. There were no more plays for me in that game,no second chances.I'm SO thankful that The Lord is not like that. He has been called "The God of Second Chances" Wow,it's so true.Thank you,Lord for your amazing forgiveness,and the countless, countless,countless second chances that you have given,and continue to give me.
