Thought for the week

In the game of draughts pieces advance slowly towards the other side of the board, but are often ‘Taken’ before they can succeed and are removed from the game. If they do make it, their reward is to be made a king; they can then return to help others.

In the ‘game’ of life Jesus can become our King; though he lost his earthly life, his love and forgiveness were undefeated in the struggle against hatred and evil.
