winners and losers

Well there was a big game last night. It could have gone either way. Today is the Royals' home opener. It could go either way as well.

I have decided that the reason that some people detest other teams or organization is because of "bad winners." I don't think anyone begrudges a win by humble people, but when someone is bragging, or ugly about a win, it leaves a bad taste in your mouth. When a win for someone is an opportunity for them to demean others, it can be very hurtful.

We should always be good winners and good losers. Tomorrow is another day, and there will be another game.

If our church is bigger than others, if our team is a winner, then we should help others out and be kind about relating to them. If our church is smaller and our team is a loser, then we should celebrate with those who are doing better than we are.

Life is not about winning and losing. Life is about loving. Let's be sure to love at all times. If we do, we will always be winners, no matter how our team or organization is doing.

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
