I looked at the bar, preparing to jump.
It was my final jump at the Big Ten Championships.
There was no fear, no pressure, no anxiety.
I was at peace.
The result? I won the Big Ten title and jumped a PR of 7 feet 6 inches, making me tied for fourth in the world and first in the country.
Those are great accomplishments, but it’s not me who should receive the praise.
The reason for my success is my faith in Christ. Without Him I would not have achieved anything.
My relationship with God has completely changed my mindset in how I approach competition. It’s not competing for myself. It’s a way I can bring glory to God.
My relationship with God has transformed my life, and I will take every opportunity to share that with the world.
