of heaven for his sly and wicked ways and
is now the joker of eternal hell. The Queen
stands for the Virgen Mary. And the King is
our Lord Jesus Christ. I count the dots on all
the cards, I come up with 365 total,...one for
every day of the year. There are a total of
52 cards in a deck; each is a week—52
weeks in a year. The four suits represent the
four seasons of: Spring, Summer, Fall and
Winter. Each suit has thirteen cards. There
are exactly thirteen weeks in a quarter. So,
when I want to talk to God and thank Him, I
just pull out this old deck of cards and they
remind me of all that I have to be thankful
for.” The sergeant just stood there. After a
minute, with tears in his eyes, and pain in his
heart, he said, ”Soldier, can I borrow that
deck of cards?” ***
THE DECK OF CARDS ***
It was quiet that day, the guns and mortars, and
land mines for some reason hadn’t been heard.
The young solder knew it was Sunday. The holiest
day of the week. As he was sitting there, he got
out an old deck of cards and laid them out
across his bunk. Just then, an army sergeant
came in and said, “Why aren’t you with the rest
of the platoon?” The soldier replied,”I thought I
would stay behind and spend some time with the
Lord.” The sergeant said, “Looks to me like
you’re going to play cards.” The soldier said,
“No, sir. You see, since we are not allowed to
have Bibles or other spiritual books in this country. I’ve decided to talk to the Lord by studying
this deck of cards” The sergeant asked in disbelief, “How will you do that?” “You see the Ace,
Sergeant? It reminds me that there is only one
God. The Two represents the two parts of the Bible, Old and New Testaments. The Three represents the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Four
stands for the Four gospels: Mathew, Mark, Luke
and John. The Five is for the five virgens that
were ten but only five of them were glorified. The
Six if for the six days it took God to create the
Heavens and Earth. The Seven if for the day God
rested after making His Creation. The Eight is for
the family of Noah and his wife with their three
sons and their wives-the eight people God
spared from the flood that destroyed the earth.
The Nine if for the lepers that Jesus cleansed of
leprosy. He cleaned ten, but nine never thanked
Him. The Ten represents the Ten commandments
that God handed down to Moses on tablets
made of stone. The Jack is a reminder of Satan,
one of God’s first angels, but he got kicked out
