Its three strikes and you’re out whether you swing the bat or not, so SWING! – Babe Ruth
Jonathan and his armor-bearer took out a garrison of Philistine soldiers with one sword. The Lord 'helped' his swing. Amen!
Abraham Lincoln failed at many things before he became President of the U.S. Thomas Edison struck out over a thousand times before he discovered the light bulb. The common denominator is these men and other great people like them never let yesterday’s disappointment stop them in their tracks. They took advantage of every opportunity again and again to press on and succeed. One thing we know about life is that like baseball it doesn’t care if you swing or not, it will take you out if not lived properly. But God gives us opportunities everyday to make an eternal impact for his kingdom, which builds our own self-worth. These are the moments that sustain us, so we can’t afford to miss those pitches!
Until tomorrow……
Pastor Botts
“Be very careful, then, how you live – not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity….” – Ephesians 5:15-16
