Thank you for choosing Christian Youth Center Sports!

Eye / Hand Coordination...How many of you when you were six months to a year old could catch or throw a baseball? (Let them answer) Most likely, none of you could. If we were to throw a ball to you at that age, it might hit you between the eyes.That is a learned skill. It is called eye / hand coordination. It is used in all kinds of activities. Over time, all of us learn some eye / hand coordination skills. (Like what…i.e. eating, brushing our teeth, etc.) Some of them we can get really good at.

King David, one of the bravest and most powerful kings said in Psalm 141…I have kept my eyes on you Lord. God wants us to learn the skill of keeping our eyes on Him. Life at times is good, bad or something in the middle. There are times when life could hit us right between the eyes.

In baseball/softball when we are up to bat…what does our coach tell us to do? (Keep your eye on the ball). When we do…we perform better.In life, God wants us to learn the skill of keeping our eyes on Him. When we do this, it will help us in every area of our life. God wants us to know him through His son, Jesus and through His word. Let’s all learn the skill of keeping our eyes on HIM.

Dear Lord, Help us this season to keep our eyes on you. Please bless each ball player and their family in ways that they need. We thank you for the opportunity to have fun and learn. In Jesus name AMEN...God bless! Lee
