The life of a Christian is like the game of softball where God is the pitcher, you are the batter and the ball is the events thrown at you in life. God is in total control and He can throw anything at you. It may seem to be going steady but then all of a sudden it will rise or drop or maybe even curve. Just like life, you never know what’s going to happen. Your job as a Christian is to adjust to whatever is thrown at you. You can take a chance and swing. You may hit one out of the park, but you have to take the risk of a swing and a miss. Or you can play it safe and just take it. But you, as a Christian have to decide whether to take that risk of swinging. Or do you want to play it safe? What kind of Christian are you?

Swing at anything that you can hit. You might miss, but it is no fun taking pitches.
It depends on how many times I've missed in a row. Sometimes it feels very OK to just let the ball go by and hope for a "walk".
