When It Looked Like I Had It All…
On paper, my life was a highlight reel. I had a successful career. I was a college athlete, a musician, even a competitor on a national TV show. From the outside, everything looked perfect. But inside, I was drowning. Shame. Anxiety. A hollow feeling that no amount of success could fill.
I was constantly chasing the next win—thinking it would finally satisfy me. But it never did. I felt fake, like it was only a matter of time before everything crumbled. Then, in one simple conversation, everything changed.
One Conversation Changed Everything
A friend looked me in the eye and told me something I’ll never forget: “You can’t build your identity on what you achieve—and life isn’t all about you.” It was a gut punch. But it was also a lifeline.
That same friend told me about God—not a distant judge, but a loving Creator who knew everything about me and still wanted me. He explained that the ache in my chest wasn’t something I could fix with performance—it was a sign I needed something more. Someone more.
The Gospel Changed My Life
I discovered that God sent His Son, Jesus, to live the perfect life I couldn’t. Jesus died on a cross to pay for all of my failures and rose again three days later—proving His power over sin, shame, and death. That forgiveness? It wasn’t something I had to earn. It was a gift. All I had to do was receive it.
So I did. I turned from my old life, trusted Jesus, and asked Him to lead me. The peace I felt wasn’t temporary—it was soul-deep. For the first time, I wasn’t performing for approval. I was living from a place of love and purpose.
