STORY:
https://t.co/NWhPVtgRrb
It was an honor and privilege to play in the NFL but it came at a regrettable cost I did not foresee. In my opinion, no amount of professional success or financial gain is worth avoidable chronic pain and disabilities. Godspeed to the draft class of 2023.
Much has changed in 8 years. Today I canโt run or jump because of my injuries sustained playing this game. DO NOT take the pills they give you. DO NOT take the injections they give you. If you absolutely must, consult an outside doctor to learn the long-term implications.
The Scripture says what God has blessed, no man can curse. The blessing on you is more powerful than any betrayal, than any negative word spoken over you, than how you were raised, than people trying to discredit you.
God is smiling on you. Heโs going before you, right now, making crooked places straight, moving the wrong people out of the way, lining up the right people, arranging things in your favor.
It may be impossible to you, but itโs not to our God. Start expecting His favor. Start believing that new levels are coming. Start talking like itโs going to happen.

Giving is not limited to simply our finances; itโs a lifestyle. When we live with the spirit of giving and we give of our time, our love, our resources, we are sowing seeds that God will make sure blossoms into a rich harvest!

You may have seen His blessings in the past, but you havenโt touched the surface of what He has in store. The Scripture says, โWe havenโt seen, heard, or imagined the amazing things God has for those that love Him.โ
Your scars are not there to hold you back; they are reminders of the grace of God, of what Heโs brought you through. Thereโs healing in your scars. Thereโs restoration in your scars. Your scars can inspire someone else to believe.
People canโt stop what God put on you. Keep doing the right thing, honoring God, being your best, and the blessing will always override what people have done.

When youโre faithful in the silent seasons, when you do the right thing when you donโt understand it, you are passing the test. You are setting yourself up for God to take you further than you ever dreamed.
