Faith

Faith is a strong word. Everyone has faith in something. To have faith is to believe in something very strongly. Most people associate the word faith to religion. I have faith in my religion, and believe strongly in it. You can have faith in things other than religion though. You can have faith in anything that you think will happen. I have faith that we are going to win state in baseball. I am not positive that this will happen, but I know we have the potential on our team to do so. I have faith that we can win it all. Last year we went to the elite eight and lost in the bottom of the seventh inning. It was a heart breaking loss. Had we won that game, we would have cruised to the state championship. The team that beat us won the next two games by nearly ten runs. They beat us three to two. They were down two to one in the bottom of the seventh to us. I know that this year, we are nearly as good as we were last year. We lost two good hitters and one good hitter but that is about it. So far, this year we are thirteen and four. We have lost some very easy games so far. We have rebounded very well though. It may be hard for us to go on our postseason run to win the state title, but I have faith in our team. In baseball, anyone can beat anyone else on a given day. To win the state title, you have to be good and lucky. I think that we have what it takes. Last year we were very good, but were not very lucky. This year I hope that we can put both of these qualities together in our post season run. I have faith that we can. Faith is a strong word, and I have plenty of faith that we can do what it takes this year to win a state title.
