The
Lord's Baseball Team |
 |
 |
Bob was caught up inthe spirit as he and the Lord stood by to observe
a baseball game. The Lord's team was playing satan's team. The Lord's
team was at bat, the score was tied zero to zero, and it was the
bottom of the 9th inning with two outs.

They continued to watch as a
batter stepped up to the plate whose name was Love. Love swung at the
first pitch and hit a single, because Love never fails. The next
batter was named Faith, who also got a single because Faith works with
Love.  |
 |
 |
The next batter up was named
Godly Wisdom. Satan wound up and threw the First pitch; Godly Wisdom
looked it over and let it pass, because Godly Wisdom does not swing at
Satan's pitches. Ball one. Three more pitches and Godly Wisdom walked,
because Godly wisdom never swings at Satan's throws. The bases were
loaded.  |

The
Lord then turned to Bob and told him He was now going to bring In His
star player. Up to the plate stepped Grace. Bob said he sure did Not
look like much! Satan's whole team relaxed when they saw Grace.
Thinking he had won the game, Satan wound up and fired his first
pitch. To the shock of everyone, Grace hit the ball harder than anyone
had ever seen. But Satan was not worried; his center fielder, the
Prince of the air, Let very few get by.He went up for the ball, but it
went right through his glove, hit him on the head and sent him
crashing on the ground; then it continued over the fence for a home
run! The Lord's team won.

The Lord then asked Bob if he knew why Love, Faith, and Godly Wisdom
could get on base but could not win the game. Bob answered that he did
not know why. The Lord explained, "If your love, faith and wisdom
had won the game you would think you had done it by yourself. Love,
faith and Wisdom will get you on base, but only My grace can get you
home. My grace is The one thing that cannot be stopped."
