Poker: Cash-In Anxiety (Luke 18:1-8)
You cashing in? (Or want to?) as stress goes through the roof?
The center of your being emerges – life’s the proof –
For when the game is over, your chips are down, “all in”,
Your cash goes down the river, and poverty begins.Not all the players lose now, they drop off one by one;
You can’t just sit forever, they’ll have you on the run;
The game is structured ’round you, it mimics life in ways;
Anxiety at cash-in (cash-out) is part that stays.Solution? Get more funding – cash, in anxiety;
Suck up more cash for playing, “If only I could see
Another hand of playing, my luck would turn, there’d be
A better time of leaving – reduced anxiety”.But that’s just how the world thinks, slip into it and see –
Your peace of mind starts slipping (rise in anxiety);
But Jesus had an answer – “die” to it all at first
Then cash-in time is over, and death has done its worst.navigation
