Around one year ago today I sat down with my pastor, who I'm good friends with and let him know what I was going through. How I had lost everything I found my identity in. I had lost my 6 figure job, I had no money to my name and close to $100K of debt, I was recovering from two
knee surgeries that took away my ability to play sports the way I used to. We were entering a pandemic that took away all social interaction and all hope of a way out.

I knew my situation was bigger than myself, so I gave it up to God. I trusted Him, and was grateful that every

That's how I deal with the ups and downs, because I'm confident there's something so much greater out there to
live for. If I lost everything again tomorrow, I would be at peace, because I know my identity isn't rooted in what I have or what I do, but in the God that loved me enough to give His only Son to die on the cross for my sins so that I could be reborn. Any and all success I have,
I will continue to give back. To the community, to the church, to friends and to family.

Also, I never once begged.
I worked, and I believed.
