Nothing Much Happened at Work Today

Baseball is a lot like life. You wake up one morning. Eat your oatmeal. Drink your coffee. Start the cross-word puzzle. Shave, then go to work. 15 minutes on the bike. Do a little stretching and head out to the field. Should be a slow day. The coordinator stops you on the way out the door. 

"You'll be going with the big league team on Monday to Fort Myers. They need you as back-up in the bullpen." 

Hmmm...good to know. 

"Other than that, Honey, nothing much happened at work today." 

Tomorrow we'll be in Ft. Myers. Today, we are going to the beach, eating roast beef for dinner, and getting locked out of the house by our two year old. (Ask me about that later.) All run of the mill sort of stuff. 

This run of the mill little family is thanking and praising our gracious heavenly Father for the wonderful opportunity Josh has to play with the big league team tomorrow. The game will be at 1 pm EST, so 10 AM AZT. 

Please join us in praying that if God sees fit, Josh will have the opportunity to pitch, that he goes out with confidence and strength, that the Lord would grant him great success in his labor, and that his work would be an offering of excellence and a sacrifice of praise to our gracious savior Jesus Christ, for it is He alone who has given Josh this ability and brought him to this place. 

If you want to follow the game, the box score will be updated live on the Orioles' webpage. For those of you whose lives do not revolve around baseball, I'll try to post a quick update tomorrow night. 

Thank you for your prayers!
