Five Minute Friday: Risk

Five Minute Friday

No extreme editing; no worrying about perfect grammar, font, or punctuation.

Unscripted. Unedited. Real.

5 mins of writing on a set topic.

I’ve decided that if I ever wanted to do more writing….and to really get serious about it then I need to be able to just write.  Simply write.  So I’m going to join some friends linking up at Lisa-Jo’s blog and we shall see what fun ensues…..

So here goes….

RISK.

I can’t help but think of the board game ‘Risk’ whenever I see the word ‘risk’.  Did you know in the interests of family harmony one should never ever play Risk with one’s Mother-in-love.  Mmm.  Never.  I think the last time the game was on offer at a family gathering…quite some time ago….it was definitely time for me to feed the baby.  For an extra long feed it was if I remember correctly.

Risk is that wonderful game with a thousand little pieces that vacuums like to suck up.  The aim – quite simply – world domination.

Kinda like us as Christians.  Bit by bit take over the world.  Winning people to Christ – by BEING Christ.

For some – the game of Risk requires them to play bold moves.  Be the up front people.  Be the ones with the voices for all to hear.

For others – the game of Risk requires them to be sneaky and go undercover….finding a way when there is no way.

STOP.

    • Ohh I’ll have to read yours!! My first time participating and it was hard!!! The time goes soooo fast.

  2. It is fun to forget your inner editor, or your 4th gr. teacher and just “hot pen” it– I never played Risk and probably never will… But I do take risks for my Jesus. I know He’ll never turn on me, leave me flailing ‘n failing, or let me falter… THAT’S different! ❤
