First off, Fall is the best season of the year; I don't think I need to debate that point. Secondly, Fall break is fantastic. I can't even begin to describe how nice it has been to get away from all of the stress that school has to offer for a few days.
The semester is a little more than halfway completed, and despite my demanding class shedule, I'm maintaining an A average. I'm beginning to realize that taking twenty hours worth of classes wouldn't have been half bad if I wasn't playing baseball at the same time. I absolutely love the game of baseball, and I am so thankful that God gave me the ability to play it at a high level. Lately, however, I've been questioning my decision to play again. I injured my shoulder in August and since that day my shoulder has been getting progressively worse. I've seen the doctor on three separate occasions now, and each time they have refused to refer me to have an MRI done. I believe that I tore my rotator cuff and I do not think physical therapy is going to help my shoulder at this point. In fact, I think it will only injure my shoulder further and cause me to suffer quite a bit more pain than I'm already in right now (which is a lot).
At any rate, prayer for my shoulder would be much appreciated. My parents are insisting that I do the physical therapy; I'm not thrilled. On a happier note, God has been teaching me a lot about myself lately. He is slowly revealing to me His heart and desires for my life. It's growing in me an excitement for the future unlike any that I've ever had, and I really can't wait to see the big picture for what He has in store. The bottom line is that God alone is good, and without Him I would be hopeless.
God Bless,
~Matt
