Block
3 We put no stumbling block in anyone’s path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. 4 Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; 2 Corinthians 6:3-4
This week during a tournament baseball game, the shortstop on the
other team would stand completely in front of the base and obstruct the
base runner from getting back to the base. In one case he blocked the
base so well the runner couldn't get back to the base and was tagged
out. The umpire didn't call obstruction, instead when our coach
politely inquired about the kid blocking the base, he said it was
alright for our players to push him out of the way, which in reality is
not the correct way to handle the play if you think about it. When you
are traveling through your daily walk with Christ, what is out there
that obstructs you from walking with Christ and instead pushes you to
walk with the world. I am sure you can think of a number of things that
block your path, but there is one thing that we need to remember. We
have a special gift that travels with us that allows us to break through
that obstruction and that is the Holy Spirit. Let the Holy Spirit
guide you through whatever tries to block you.
Have a great weekend.
