"Run Dummy"

Happy Anniversary to 2nd chances!!  18 yrs ago today I was given that 2nd chance.  When I woke up this morning I had a scene from the movie Bull Durham in my head, "Run Dummy"...I added the clip from youtube if you don't know the scene.  Basically the catcher lets the batter know the pitcher is going to throw a fastball.  The batter crushes the next pitch out of the park then he just stands there.  The catcher then yells at him " I just gave you a gift and you just stand there?  Run Dummy!"  

How many times do I forget this gift that God has given me, a 2nd chance, a beautiful loving wife and 4 incredible children.  He's given me an amazing adventure over the last 18 yrs that really is just the beginning. Over the next few days I'll be releasing some really exciting information and our first video about our youth sports discipleship program.  I really hope you all love it!

I pray today that we all see the gifts God has given us, that we don't need to have tragedy or near tragedy  strike before we sit up and take notice. That when we're given a gift or opportunity we don't just stand there and watch, we all run the bases as fast as we can, that we're never mistaken for spectators.

Have an awesome day and God Bless!!
