Now, I don't like to brag, but since this is on behalf of someone else I think it might be ok, especially since he would never brag...ever. My little brother(I say little but he towers over me at six feet tall) has just made an all star soccer team for 15 year olds from across eastern North America. Now, it is not as if Sandy woke up one morning and was all of a sudden really awesome at soccer...he has worked crazy hard to get to where he is. Infact he has been cut from his fair share of teams. But he works hard...he trains in some way eight days a week. He has earned every oppertunity that has come his way through soccer.
But it's not his soccer ability or work ethic that make me so proud of him. It is his desire to put God first in his life. Sandy was baptised just over a month ago, and as his sister I can honesetly say it was one of the proudest moments of my life. My "little" bother has decided to live his life for Jesus and nothing could make me happier or more proud of him. My pray is that he will continue to grow in his faith and use his soccer as a platform to spread the gospel.
