Sports, like baseball, provide us with a unique opportunity to grow in discipline and, in many ways, virtue. They can cultivate community and joy, and allow us to glorify God with our very bodies.
On the front of this full-color, laminated card depicts Christ with His hand raised in blessing standing behind a young man playing ball. On the back of the card is a prayer for Baseball players asking God to help them on the field and off.
Give this as a gift to your teammates or keep it with your equipment to pray before practice or the big game. Made in Italy, these beautifully designed laminated prayer cards are inspiring and sturdy. They can be purchased as singles or in packs of 25 for a bulk discount.
God grant me wisdom, to tell a strike from a ball, to know where to throw and never to fall. Keep me always in the base line, running straight and true and I'll look for your sign, to stretch one into two. God give me vision, to see every pitch, so if a player needs help, then I will see which. Let me always hustle, so I'll be at my best and take pride in myself, in sports and the rest. God be my strength, when I throw the ball when I'm far from home plate or against a wall. So I never miss a base, please guide my feet, bring me home safely, so my job is complete. When I help younger players, let me always give praise, so they'll see you in me, in all of my ways. God please guide our coach, to be fair and smart, to teach us to be good, let it come from his heart. Let me take a loss, just as well as a win, to do any less, is surely a sin. As long as I can play, let me make my parents proud, as proud as I am, when they yell MY name out loud. However my games end, let me always have fun, and if Heaven has All Stars, I want to be one. When my games here are over and my seasons are done, let me play on your team just like your son. Amen.
