PLAY FOR AN AUDIENCE OF ONE
When we put Jesus first in all we do, fear and doubt begin to give way to faith, peace, and assurance.
God’s Word is “a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” — Psalm 119:105
For baseball players going through the recruiting process, we don’t have to know what tomorrow holds because we know Who holds tomorrow.
Excited and grateful to be playing for the East Coast Sox organization this coming year! I’m thankful for this opportunity and look forward to continuing to grow as a player while living out the calling God has placed on my life. @eastcoastbball@PrepBaseballTN@LCPackBSB
WALK-OFF HOME RUN
"For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that he appeared to Cephas, and then to the Twelve." — 1 Corinthians 15:3–5 (NIV)
One of the greatest moments in baseball is a walk-off home run.
As the hitter rounds the bases, his teammates are waiting at home plate, ready to celebrate. It's a picture of excitement, joy, and victory.
In many ways, that celebration gives us a glimpse of what it will be like when a follower of Jesus is called home to heaven. Every believer who has gone before us will be there, celebrating our arrival into God's presence.
Paul writes that the Gospel is "of first importance." Before anything else, we must know, believe, and trust in Jesus Christ—His death for our sins, His burial, and His resurrection. That is our first priority.
Baseball teaches a similar principle. You cannot advance to second, third, or home without first touching first base. If you miss first base, it doesn't matter how fast you run or whether you touch every other base—you'll be called out.
Life is no different.
If we miss our first love—Jesus Christ—we miss everything. We may experience success, accomplishments, championships, or an amazing life, but none of those can take the place of a relationship with Him.
Only through Jesus do we receive eternal life and the privilege of one day being welcomed home into heaven.
Don't miss First Base today.
Make Jesus your first priority, because what is "of first importance" determines where you'll spend eternity.
