On a recent trip to Syracuse, we were able to take in a Syracuse Chiefs game, AAA affiliate to the Washtingon Nationals. At one point, we elected to leave our comfy seats near the dugout and venture out into left field. We were enjoying the lack of other fans near us, just enjoying the pureness of an evening outdoor minor league ball game. When all of a sudden a foul ball was launched and hit seats near us.
This completely spooked out Faith and for the rest of the time, she decided to hide behind the chair and not risk being hit by a foul ball. Completely cracked me up. Wasn't til i affirmed my protection over my daughter that she decided to come back out and sit with us.
It again reminded me of our relationship with our heavenly father. Many times we venture out on our own and the perils of the "foul balls" come our way and leave us vulnerable and afraid. Its not until we realize that we have the protection and guidance of our heavenly father who guides us and by putting our trust in him, we once again can watch the ball game of life and participate in it.
