What Basketball has done for me...
My name is Cross. I am a Basketball Player, but more importantly a Chris-
tian. The reason I say that is because my identity is in my Lord God. I play
basketball wholeheartedly, and I take pride in wearing that cross on my
jersey every time I step out on that court. I love the sport of basketball more
than anything else. When I was just 4, I was diagnosed with Sports-Induced
asthma. I always thought that I should just quit because I can’t do it, but
there is nothing that can stop you from being the best rather than yourself.
Your motivation is the key to making you who you are. My Lord God has
blessed all of us with the ability to do anything we put our mind to. Philippi-
ans 4:13, “I can do all things through HIM who strengthens ME.” Before ev-
ery game, I pray and thank God for what he’s done for me. If anyone doubts
you for any reason, know that it’s you who makes you who you are. Nobody
can stop you from achieving greatness. Nobody.
