Yogi Berra is widely regarded as one of the best catchers in baseball history. He also became affectionately known for his “Yogisms.” These are the phrases he coined in terms of quirky sayings and memorable malaprops.


Here’s one he used to say all the time: It ain’t over till it’s over!


But this particular quip is actually biblical. It’s why I added “God” to the original quote (while correcting the grammar!).


Because nothing is ever over until God says it’s over.


God controls everything in all creation (Psalm 24:1). And he wants us to learn to wait on him.


Therefore, never give up. Always learn to persevere. Trust. These are powerful principles that God gives us in his Word that underpin most all success in life.

Because nothing in life is over until God says it’s over.
