ONLY NEED TO BAT A
Little Leaguer was playing the outfield in the first game of the season. After chasing a long hit and hustling the ball back into the infield, someone asked him how his team was doing and what the score was. The boy said his team was doing O.K., but they were trailing seventeen to zero. The person asked if he was discouraged about being so far behind, and if he was ready to admit defeat. He came back immediately with this retort: “We aren’t beaten, we haven’t even been up to bat yet!” Hope is a vital element also in the battle with sin. We have good reason for confidence because God is in Heaven and all power rests in Him. And all who serve Him can draw on His unlimited resources.
