A BADMINTON PRAYER

By: Henry C. Daut

LORD, bless me as I step into the COURT

to play the game of BADMINTON.

Allow me to have a good GRIP of the racket

I will hold and the game I will play.

Guide my every STEP as I move to cover every SHOT.

Help me to deliver the best SERVICE

to my fellowmen.

Be it SHORT, LONG or even just a FLICK

of a second.

Give me the strength to CLEAR the way

to reach greater heights.

The power to SMASH all barriers that try

to block the way to success.

Grant that I may have the courage to RECEIVE

the blows that may come my way.

Increase my desire to DRIVE forward

despite some failures.

Let me not DROP my guard and become

complacent because of little victories.

Instead give me the speed to rush forward

to NET greater results and

go for the KILL to score.

Not just in the game of BADMINTON,

but more importantly in the

real game of LIFE.

Make every victory a reminder of bigger

and stronger challenges ahead.

Let every defeat become a learning experience

that there is more to learn to become better

and that I can also savor the joy of winning

if I work hard to improve my game.

Help me to understand that the person

on the other side of the net

is not just an opponent that I have to beat

but a partner that will bring out

my best in the contest.

Finally, help me Lord to learn not just the lessons

of the game but more importantly, the lessons of life

that I may become an excellent badminton player,

but more significantly a better person in life.

Amen.
