Updates from the Protestant Chapel 10/15/21

Until 1995, Lou Gehrig held Major League Baseball's record for the longest streak of consecutive games played (2,130).  He had to overcome a tremendous amount of difficulty.  He played 15 seasons, at times with injuries including broken bones and a bad back.  Sometimes, he even played sick.   

 

In 1995, Cal Ripkin Jr. broke Lou Gherig's record.  Cal also faced adversity en route to setting the record.  In 1998, he established a new benchmark with 2,632 consecutive games played!  It is now considered an unbreakable record.

Lou Gherig and Cal Ripkin Jr. demonstrated amazing determination and dependability. 

 

Can we apply these examples to our walk with the Lord?  What comparisons can be made?  Could the streak of consecutive games be compared to daily devotions, weekly worship or even practicing godliness? 

 

Let's be encouraged to build determination and dependability in our relationship with God.   Expand it.  Enhance it.  This can be a big step toward increasing effectiveness and faithfulness to God.

 

See you Sunday!

 

Grace & Peace,

 

  Chaplain Lee
