From the Playground to the Stars

I created this work after reflecting on past and present peopleWho inspired me in their accomplishments and dedication to
Their works and to society, most of all, I see the treasures of God
Manifested in our everyday lives, overwhelming us with blessings
And gifts he ordained before the foundation of the world. Unfortunately
The graveyard is filled with buried treasures of which the enemy stole.
What- ever gifts God blessed us with, even if they take us to the stars
Remember, he is the source and is worthy to be praised. For all good
Things come from above, therefore they all started with love. The gift
He gave to the world was gifted wrapped in flesh and sent with the name
Of Jesus Christ, the only true bridge between God and man. So when our
Roads meet him at the cross, we can't help but to acknowledge he paid
Our cost. Otherwise, all we work for is in vain, for without him we're
Totally lost. whether it's sports, medicine, education or some other area
Of life he blesses us with fruits for us to bless one another. remember
The blood In our veins and the air in our lungs, is a blessing from God
And the Cross Jesus hung..
