Losing

My team lost. I am a baseball fan and last night was the all star game. I always cheer for the national league because I am a Cincinnati Reds and Saint Louis Cardinals fan. They got beat in extra innings. The American league has won several years in a row.

Sometimes your team loses. Sometimes you lose. Life does not always go your way. How you respond during these times reveals much about what is in your heart. You will learn how mature you really are. You will learn how dedicated to God you really are. You will learn how loyal you are. Nothing reveals more about you than losing. Make a decision today that you are going to remain true even when you lose. Don't take your ball and go home. Stay in the game. Keep playing. Be faithful.
