Towards the end of the baseball game, a controversial call was given. At full speed Paul Harvey slid home(本垒)and, thinking he had just ___36___ a game-changing run, he stood up only to face the words, “You’re ___37___!”
Angry, he threw off his helmet and ran over to explain to the ___38___ why the call was wrong. Before his ___39___ really got out of control, someone pulled him away, and he walked to the bench---___40___.
Long after the coaches, players, and fans had gone home, he realized the impact of his ___41___. Like most of us do when we are faced with the __42___ of our actions, he could have just let it go, reasoning, “Everybody ___43___ it.”
However, in the silence of his heart, he knew that just ___44___ everyone else does it, that doesn’t make it all right. And so, long after his friends had gone home, he ___45___ that coach back up to the school—not to ___46___ his car. No, the boy tracked this man down so he could tell him face to face, “I’m sorry, Sir. It was all my___47___.”
It takes true courage to stand up to face the ___48___ we all make and say, “I was wrong. I’m sorry.” What makes this ___49___ unique is that it wasn’t meant for the world to ___50___, it was meant simply as a way to stay ___51___ to his own heart.
The truth is at one time or another we have all been this boy --- ___52___ out in anger, saying hurtful things, and feeling ___53___ for doing so. But the real test comes later when we are ___54___ with the choice to say “sorry” or to walk away thinking, “Ah, they’ll get over it.”
Maybe the “they” is a customer, a friend, or a child. Whoever it is, don’t pass up the opportunity to get right with your own heart. The time for apology is now! Courage is a ___55___ of the heart.

By Thanksgiving , she had collected only $49. I said, “ You  37 have your pick from my bicycle  38  ”. “Thanks, Daddy. But your bikes are so old. ” She was right. All my girls’ bikes were 1950s models, not the kind a kid today would   39 choose.
As Christmas  40 near, Emily and I went bike shopping . As we left one store, she  41 a Salvation Army volunteer standing next to a big pot. “Can we give something, Daddy?” She asked. “Sorry, Em, I’m out of   42    . ”
Throughout December, Emily continued to work hard. Then one day, she made a  43 announcement. “You know all the money I’ve been saving?” she said hesitantly. “I’m going to give it to the poor people.” So one cold morning before Christmas, Emily handed her total savings of $58 to a volunteer who was really very  44   .
45  by Emily’s selflessness, I decided to contribute  46 of my old bicycles to a car dealer who was collecting used bikes for poor children.  47 I selected a shiny model from my collection, however, it seemed as if a second bike took on a glow. Should I contribute two? No, one would be enough. But I couldn’t  48  the feeling that I should give a second bike. When I later  49 the bikes, the car dealer said, “You’re making two kids very  50  , sir . Here are your tickets. For each bicycle contributed, we’re   51  away one chance to win a girl’s mountain bike. ”
Why wasn’t I surprised when that second ticket proved to be the 52   ? I like to think it was God’s way of  53  a little girl for a sacrifice  54  her year--while giving her dad a lesson in the  55  .
