We've all played our fair share of pinball throughout our lives, I'm sure. Speaking for myself, I know I have! If you've been under a rock for the last billion years, pinball is awesome, Google it! Is life not just like a game of pinball? I assure you, it is. Let me quickly explain. Much like that round metallic ball, life is up and down. Sometimes we run down the right path that lead to many good things, other times, we just miss, and fall into a deep slump. However, the good news I have to share with you is that life's game of pinball has unlimited credits, because God is the one in control of the flappers. He's always there lifting you up, ALWAYS! Sometimes we fall down, but the Lord can re-spawn us with the pool stick type object that I honestly don't know the name of. God is a very advanced player, however. You know how you can get up to 5 or 6 balls at the same time, and you have to try to keep them all going? Well, God keeps billions and billions of balls up all at once. How amazing is that?!

Life is hard, there's no doubt. We all suffer the same trials, and tribulations. The question is who's playing our game of pinball? Are you playing your own game, or are you trusting God to play for you? If you're playing your own game, the weight of all of those balls are eventually going to give way, and you're going to be crushed! Personally, I've taken myself out of the game, and allowed the Lord to take the buttons, as I know a sure thing when I see it. I pray you'll do the same! Until eternity my friends.
