Be Bold, Reclaim
Reclaim in Jesus’ Name that which hell has stolen
I have now been in the ministry for 33 years (Pastor Shafer). One of my observations
has been that there have been some amazing mountain top experiences, people getting
saved, a baptism service for nine people, numerous notable ministry events and the list
goes on. However, there have also been some valley experiences. Things just didn’t seem
to be going that well. During those times in your life it is easy to become discouraged.
After all, Satan loves to steal away our joy and enthusiasm in the ministry. But He who is
in you is greater than he who is in the world. (1 John 4:4b)
While much of the media is focused on football don’t forget that it is still Major League Baseball season.
The World Series start date is October 27, with Game 7 scheduled for November 4.
Willie Mays began his major league baseball career with only one hit in his first 26 at-bats. Though he
went on to hit 660 home runs and steal more than 300 bases, his debut was so unimpressive it seemed
unlikely he would last more than a few weeks as a big-leaguer, let alone become one of the greatest to
play the game.
The turning point for Mays occurred when his manager, Leo Durocher, found him crying in the dugout after yet another miserable performance at the plate. The coach put his arm around Mays and said, “What’s
the matter, son?” Mays said, “I can’t hit up here. I belong in the minor leagues.”
Durocher said this to Willie Mays: “As long as I’m manager of the Giants, you’ll be my centerfielder.”
If Willie had been left alone in the dugout that day, his career might have ended before it started. Fortunately for him (and for baseball) someone believed in him even when he didn’t believe in himself.
Is there someone in your life who needs your vote of confidence? Someone who’s ready to give up? Someone who no longer believes in their ability to do what God has called them to do? You have the opportunity to lift them up. Your words — your confidence — can help get them back on track. When you offer
encouragement to others, you quite literally renew their strength. Paul challenged us all:
Therefore encourage one another and build each other up… (1 Thessalonians 5:11)
