And That's the Point

.
It's His game. 
They're His dice.
And He'll shake the cup
     and roll and re-roll the dice
          how and whenever He wants.
And that’s the point.

You who exalt yourselves so tall,
Enter into a rock
     or hide in the dust
When God almighty
     goes to shake the earth.
Good luck.

Instead,
Cast away now
     your idols of
          silver and gold.
Sever yourselves
     from those who
          worship the ground
               they walk.
Bow no longer
     to those with
          many a horse
               and chariot.

Remember,
     it's His game.
They’re His cards.
And He'll shuffle the deck
     and deal them to the players
          how and whenever He wants.
And that’s the point.

For what account is he
     who merely plays the game?
 

Isaiah 2
