So, I'm playing on the company softball team.
Sat out the first 3 innings. Then got put into left field. First ball hit to me was a line drive. I caught it, as my feet were slipping out from beneath me. (Anyone that saw me play baseball in highschool can appreciate what an accomplisment that is). So, I thought to myself...things are looking up.
Got out of that inning and it was my first time up to bat. 1st pitch, I hit a p-rod over the 3rd baseman for a double. Wow, things started off great!! I was thinking to myself, maybe I've earned a sport in the starting lineup ( I really don't care about starting, but the competitor inside of me thought that for a hot second. I enjoy watching people and making fun of them as much as I enjoy playing). So, I get stranded on third, and the inning is over.
We are winning 12-5 at this point.
The next inning..I go back out to left field. Every single hit came my way..when it rains, it pours. Two routine pop fly's headed my way, except for any fly ball headed my way is not routine. Ended up that inning with 2 errors and was responsible for about 6 runs crossing the plate. How embarrasing!!!
Good news...they asked me to come back...not sure yet if that was out of pity or not. I shall keep you updated on how the season plays out.
Oh yea, we were up 11-0 at one time, and lost 15-14.
On the season:
At the plate: 1-1 with a double
Fielding: 2 errors
OB%-1.000

childhood memory
So I was scanning the internet today and there was a clip about Andre the Giant. I watched that clip, which led me to watching some youtube clips. In watching this, I took a trip back down memory lane to where watching wrestling was cool ( not that it isn't cool now ). I remembered how we would go to church on Sunday mornings and how after church was over, and I mean as soon as it was over, it was a race over to grandma's. We would park, and ZOOM!! we would be in a dead sprint to be the first kid inside the door. First kid inside the door had the best chance of finding the remote control first. Wrestling was always on, on Sunday's. If the older kid's got the remote, we would have to watch football or something. Anyways...none of you will really be able to enjoy this story unless you're my brother or cousin...

Passion of the Christ
So, I sat down last night to watch TV and I stopped on the movie, The Passion of the Christ. I don't know why I stopped there, but I did. As I was watching it, I had some pretty neat thoughts running through my head.
First thought.
I think it is good to watch that movie again. I think too many time we can get complacent on what really took place that day. That day was crazy tough on him. The beating that he took was unlike any beating I've ever seen. I think that I get so busy in life that I never really let myself think of what that day must have been like. I say it to many times, that Christ died on a tree to save me...blah blah blah. It was much more than that. It was the whipping, thrashing, beating of his body that lasted several hours. I think that we sometimes forget how hard it was. And to think that he could have stopped it at any time, but he didn't. What an awesome God I serve. What incredible love he showed on that day. I sin too often and then say, well...that's why Jesus died on a tree. I think if I were to really think about that day..why would I ever want to hurt someone who showed me so much love?
2nd Thought.
I was asking Chris what it must have been like to be that guy that was pulled out of the crowd and made to help carry the cross of Jesus. Don't have a lot to say about that one, but just the thought is enough to chew on today.
3rd thought.
After Jesus had gotten to the top of the hill, he fell down beside the cross. And maybe this happened only in the movie, but I feel like it must have happened that day. When he was laying beside the cross, he mustered up his own energy and climbed his way onto that cross. Side Note: I know that if that were me, and that I were innocent, I would be kicking and screaming and doing all that I could not to get on that cross. Jesus, and innocent man, with all the strength, and love that he had, he climbed on that cross for you and me. After all the beating, cursing, spitting...Jesus still had the love to crawl on that cross. Pretty amazing stuff to me.
I hope that you can enjoy and embrace the love of Jesus, because There Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing!!!!

One Verse
The other week, I went to the Jimmy Needham/Rush of Fools concert, and it was pretty bumpin awesome. Well, one thing they were pushing was this OneVerse deal. It was the first time I've ever heard of it, though many have heard of it before. The deal is, that if you give $26 a month, they can translate one verse of the Bible into another language that doesn't have the Bible. Wow...soo cool...I never really ever thought about the world as a whole not having the Bible translated so they can read it. I think their are currently like 2,200 languages not translated. The girl talking about this made a great point. One day when I get to heaven, how cool would it be to meet someone that read a verse you paid to have translated and that was the reason they got to heaven. You had an eternal impact on someone!! I think I strive to have a daily impact on people, but this is a way that I can have a everlasting..and eternal impact on someone's life. Pretty bumpin cool if you ask me.
