Life Often Plates Things
Life Often Plates Things
That We Don’t Like
Written: by Tom Wright

Sometimes life plates more than can be eaten,
And results don’t reward our feint and “duckin.”
By rebuffing thoughts that perhaps we’re beaten,
Jesus makes a way for us to keep on “truckin.”
Being incapacitated briefly brings no undue shame,
For Jesus is the one who appears in our corner.
Through Him we keep rising and continue life’s game,
Disinterested in becoming the Devil’s chief mourner;
