Game #1

Today was my team's first softball game. We played tough and pulled out a victory 8-1. God deserves all of the glory though. He watched over each one of us and kept everyone safe. Many girls had great plays and hits. I did well in the field, but struggled some at the plate. Its alright though I am beginning to learn from my mistakes and putting my trust in God each time at the plate. My two favorite verses in sports are definitely, Philippians 4:13 and Psalms 27:1. Which says

The Lord is my light and my salvation,

whom shall i fear?

The Lord is the stronghold of my life,

whom shall I be afraid?



I know God has a plan for me with softball and all I can ask is that his will be done for whatever he has planned.



On a totally different another note, i had the most embarrassing moment at my game... Here's the story...
It was the last inning of the game and my team was in the field. A girl stepped up to bat and literally hit a rope into the outfield. The ball dropped and since i am shortstop I cover 2nd base when its hit to the side it was hit on. So I was covering 2nd when I saw the girl coming in at second... I was expecting her to slide. So I caught the ball and turned hard to get the tag out. Well the runner did not slide so I slapped her (with my glove) super hard right on the butt! It was an accident and i couldn't help myself from laughing and neither could others...I had just legitimately spanked a girl really hard on accident!!! I apologized to the girl and she was okay, but she was just as embarrassed as I was....Trust me it was an accident!!!!
