God not only came
that we might have life, but that we would have abundant
life. I hope you will choose to begin the
championship journey with me. It requires one very
important thing, that you be willing to overcome
yourself. We are our own greatest enemy.
I spent many years as my own worst enemy. I was
born with cerebral palsy. I was unable to walk
until I was three, and that was thanks to God's hand and
the use of a good surgeon. I would like to tell
you that from that point on nothing stopped me from
accomplishing my goals. See even though I was
raised in church and was saved when I was seven years
old, I still had some very wrong misconceptions.
I was very shy and didn't try really hard because I
thought others didn't have high expectations for me.
Now, don't misunderstand I really enjoyed competing and
played a lot of sports in school but never any really
organized high school sports. I was constantly
trying to prove that I was normal. (Whatever normal is.)
I even began to be angry with God because I didn't want
to be what He created. I felt that if only He
would heal me I could reach my full potential and do
something great. God never promised to heal my
disability. Although I knew that if I had enough
faith He would. I was right, He did heal me.
He didn't heal me the way I prayed for though. My
greatest disability wasn't my CP. It was my wrong
attitude about myself. I just assumed that if the
Lord healed me physically everything would be great.
But, He began to show me He wasn't going to heal me
physically. But, He was going to use me the way He
created me, if I would let Him. Champion Builders
Ministries is the result of His using me. I want
to be able to teach others how and why they can live a
championship life. Life with God is that
championship. God doesn't want us to live in
mediocrity, but to experience Him totally.
You can't serve God on your terms and experience Him
totally. It took me the loss of a business
and the loss of a lot of pride to see that. The
only way to experience His best for you is to give
yourself totally to Him. God can see the Champion
that lives within you. Will you allow Him to bring
it out. It won't be easy and it won't happen
overnight. But it will be the greatest and most
rewarding journey you've ever taken.
I encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and let
God use you. You will be amazed at what happens.
God Bless you;
Brandon
