Good Wednesday Morning Everyone:
With Baseball season in full swing now, I thought you might like a story
about God's baseball team today.
****
Lord's Home Run
Freddy and the Lord stood by to observe a baseball game. The Lord's
team was playing Satan's team.
The Lord's team was at bat, the score was tied zero to zero, and it
was the bottom of the 9th inning with two outs. They continued to
watch as a batter stepped up to the plate named "Love."
Love swung at the first pitch and hit a single, because "Love never
The next batter was named Faith, who also got a single because
Faith works with Love.
The next batter up was named Godly Wisdom. Satan wound up and
threw the first pitch.
Godly Wisdom looked it over and let it pass: ball one. Three more
pitches and Godly Wisdom walked because he never swings at
what Satan throws.
The bases were now loaded. The Lord then turned to Freddy and
told him He was now going to bring in His starplayer. Up to the plate
stepped Grace. Freddy said, "He sure doesn't look like much!"
Satan's whole team relaxed when they saw Grace. Thinking he there
was no way he could lose, Satan wound up and fired his first pitch.
To the shock of everyone, Grace hit the ball harder than anyone had
ever seen! However, Satan was not worried; his center fielder let
very few get by.
He went up for the ball, but it went right through his glove, hit him
on the head and sent him crashing on the ground; the roaring crowds
went wild as the ball continued over the fence for a home run!
The Lord's team won!
The Lord then asked Freddy if he knew why Love, Faith, and Godly
Wisdom could get on base but couldn't win the game. Freddy answered
that he didn't know why.
The Lord explained, "If your love, faith, and wisdom had won the game,
you would think you had done it by yourself. Love, Faith, and Wisdom
will get you on base, but only My Grace can get you Home.
"For by Grace are you saved, it is a gift of God; not of works, lest any
man should boast." Ephesians 2:8-9
"For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly." Psalm 84:11
May God Bless You and yours, and God please bless us
with your GRACE.
Larry
