I can't believe it has been so long since have posted anything on my blog but watching the Ranger's basking in this historic win made me want to just say Congrats to them along with everyone else in Texas. I am not a huge fan, I have been an avid fan of the Astros at one time when my boys were growing up. We spent many vacations at Astro games but we spent a few at the Ballpark also. I know how people who are tried and true fans for years on end hate it when everyone jumps on the winning bandwagon but without the fans you lose the excitement.
I don't know a lot about the players on the Rangers but you would have had to have been living in a cave to not know about Josh Hamilton's testimony. What an amazing story and seemingly a great Christian athlete for little ones to actually be able to look up to. A few moments ago they were talking to Josh and asked him if this way the highlight of his life and he very calmly said, "No that will be when I stand before my Lord and Saviour". Wow! What a blessing to hear him give God the honor and glory for where he is in his career and giving God the credit for bringing him out of the darkness that had enveloped his life.
As fun as this win is for North Texans in particular it will be nothing like being together one day in heaven with our Lord and all our loved ones that are already there, talking about all of our races that we had to run here on earth and in looking back we can see that the painful losses we endured don't really matter any more. We made it, we are home, now that will be some great celebration!!!!!!!
This is me
Gorgeous day in Nassau Bay

Could the Yankees represent the devil and all that is evil in this series. The story and live changing events of Josh are truly uplifting and his and his team mates testimony of love for each other could say that they are God's team. I would think even Tom Landary would agree.
