Praise The Lord Oh My Soul
“Praise the LORD, all his works everywhere in his dominion. Praise the LORD, O my soul.” – Psalm 103:22
Tommy Edman is a utility player for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He is also a Christian who is serious about his faith. When he first walked into a major league clubhouse, he saw other men live with integrity on and off the field and “the one thing that was different with them was that they all had their eyes fully set on God.”
It was then that he realized he had to make a change if he wanted to live up to the potential that God had in mind for him.
“As soon as I got to be in a clubhouse with them and saw that they lived out that light, not just on TV and on cameras, but also the behind the scenes as well. They were men of integrity. Seeing how those guys conducted themselves at all times throughout the day really made a huge impact on myself and inspired me to turn both eyes to God.”
Every baseball all player has a “walk up song” when they come to the plate and bat. Tommy has chosen the praise song “Lion” by Elevation Worship. He wants to be praising God when he enters the spotlight to bat.
What a blessing we have to be able to praise Jesus all day long!
