Small Things.

A recent article from Bicycling Magazine focuses on eleven quick and simple changes that can positively affect one's bicycling life. The article suggests that small things--the things one might think are quite insignificant, that take really little time at all, that one can easily overlook--pay big dividends.

Like drinking a glass of water first thing in the morning.

One might not think that drinking a glass of H2O at first wake is a big deal. One might even be excused in thinking that a morning glass of water has less importance for one's bicycling. But such a small thing done regularly might make all the difference.

I believe it is no different for one's faith life and discipleship to Jesus--especially in the home.

Small things make a big difference.

Practicing the Fundamentals

Little League Baseball.

Several thoughts and images just went through your mind. Little boys and girls playing in the dirt. Running to third base instead of first base after hitting the ball. Eight kids running to the ball in the outfield when someone hits it, and the one who gets it jumps up and yells, "I got it!" 

Here’s one thing: little league kids need to have regular practice in the fundamentals of the game.

If they don’t, they throw the ball all over the field, swing at bad pitches, and forget what to do with the ball if it is hit to them. Good plays are more by accident than not.
