:::Pick a Card, Any Card:::

It's like I'm performing a reverse card trick for the Lord.

I fan out the possibilities of life, carefully pull one from the deck, and with a mix of nerves and hope I ask,

'Is this my card?'

Answer -- 'No.'


O-kaaay.

(draw)

'Is this my card?'

'No.'


Hmm.

(draw)

'How about this card, is this it?'

'No.'


(shuffle, draw)

'Tada! Is this my card?'

'Mmm, close.'

'Yaho--'

But, then again, no, not really.'


And on and on we go.


Four of each kind, twenty-six of each color, thirteen of each suit.



How many times through the deck, Lord?
