Don't let them count you out

Last night I received a text message to let me know that Ohio State was down by 20 points in their game against Tennessee. Being that I was born in Ohio and lived in Columbus for sometime. I can't help but be an avid Buckeye fan. Win or lose, "Go Bucks!" So when we were down in the first half, a diehard OSU hater decided that it would be a good time to gloat. Of course, I responded with "We can come back." Truth is you can't call a game at half time because only the final score counts.

It's really the same with our lives. Sometimes we screw up in the first half and things aren't going to way we would like them to, but we can still make a come back. Don't let someone count you out just because you are down right now. When the enemy, the avid hater of your soul, wants to gloat, accuse and beat you down, just know that battle is not over and you can still win. How many times do we hear the voices in the background rehearsing our past mistakes? Just know you can still make a comeback. Take a lesson from the Buckeyes and don't let the enemy count you out a halftime, when only the final score counts.
