    How About Those Giants? ~ Chaplain Denise

    Last night’s game was a mind blower wasn’t it?  Nine to zero!  I, like many of you I’m sure, felt sorry for the Rangers. They were being humiliated on national television. Of course I want the Giants to win, but that was really sad.  However, by the time this gets read by some, the Rangers may have trounced us in game 3.  And some of you may be asking yourselves, why is the Chaplain writing about baseball?  Shouldn’t she be encouraging us all to vote on Tuesday or reminding us to give to the poor?  Yes and yes, those things go without saying. Go to the polls on Tuesday if you haven’t already voted by absentee ballot. Give generously to those in need and God will reward you in due time.  But for this moment in time, right now as I write, How About Those Giants?

    Here’s a bit of Bible trivia, did you know the giants were mentioned in the Bible?  Remember David and Goliath?  Goliath was reported to have been over nine feet tall,

    II Samuel chapter 17.  And the book of Numbers chapter 13 tells of the descendants of Anak who were “giants” and everyone else looked like grasshoppers in their sight.

    Okay, I admit, that was a sneaky way to slip some Scriptures into my blog.

    On a more serious note though, the Scriptures also warn of pride and the destruction it brings. Proverbs 16:18 says “Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall.”  In other words, don’t be too cocky, you may soon come to regret it. It doesn’t matter how good you are at what you do, none of us are able to compete against God Almighty.   So we cheer on our Giants and wish them well at Arlington Texas. God bless them as they travel, protect them and their opponents as they play.
