Bruises

I'm the varsity catcher at my school. I literally sacrifice my body to stop the ball. I come home with bruises all over but none of that compares to the pain Christ went through on the cross. He was cruicified for our sins so we can be saved! People make the comment sometimes that they don't believe in the Bible because it's a lost hope. How is it a lost hope when the Bible tells of the story of Christ? How is it a lost hope when we have the world to prove his existence? Everything wasn't just poofed here. How is it a lost hope when we wake up each and every day? God sent his son to die for us. All of us each and every one. Nobody's aches and pains cuts or bruises can ever relate to the ones Christ went through because of us and people want to call him a lost hope. No believing in God is not a lost hope him having sent his son to die on the cross is not a lost hope. We are the lost hope when we don't believe in him!
