"Hello my name is Elijah Roberts and I'm a pastors child and who is 19, a graduate of North Little Rock High,a junior in college my major is Sports medicine. Im the Guy that everyone always asks why im smiling and laughing so much, but im just that guy just shows that im thankful always due to God steady being there for me,and I'm a man that tries to spread love and kindness to anyone i meet to make their day better when i see them down and out! I am here to share my story with the world I never really talk to people about what has happened in my life cause I feel that I really don't want people to just sit up and feel sorry for me. But I really have been through a struggle my whole life, starting from birth I was born deaf , but God delivered me. From being mental and physically abused ,put down,and bullied for years with out even telling my parents,because I felt I could handle it on my own. But I soon got on my knees and prayed to God one day to show me a way to Grow more to him and give me a way to express myself and be a example to others. I started playing football when I was 9 and I still play now at the age of 19 because it's so much I have to prove and show the world that I can make it regardless of what people said about me . But my main testimony is that when I was high school I was a star player on my football team and I was so focused on tryna show out in football,and thinking that i got everything my self and I soon got hurt a few weeks before my senior year,tearing my calf muscle and Achilles in two,loosing my looks from Ark,Mizzou,UCA nd others and also my scholarship to Tulsa,! But as I sat for weeks watching my team play without me,regardless if it was a win or lose,i would sit and think "Why me" , but soon came to a point where I realized that God was the reason I was so successful and not me myself. And I realize that I have to keep my mind on God to get where I wanted in life. When I was released to play football I said to myself that I need to really get on my grind and get back to the right place in my life,following after Gods heart letting him lead me,and just because I was hurt didn't mean my Job was done,and once I graduated high school I went to a junior college for my freshman year, and soon came to UofA for school and I walked on the football team and I received a spot. I just want to share my story to let people know you can achieve anything you put your mind to,including putting God first in all that you do.
