Your faith will be tested in the recruiting process.
Not just faith in God.
Not just faith in your talent.
But faith in the timing.
There will be moments when:
• Coaches stop responding
• Teammates commit before you
• Camps don’t go the way you hoped
• An offer you wanted goes to someone else
And in those moments, doubt gets loud.
You’ll question:
“Am I good enough?”
“Did I miss my chance?”
“Should I give up?”
This is the separating point.
The athletes who succeed aren’t always the most talented.
They’re the ones who trust the process when it’s quiet.
They keep training when no one is watching.
They keep emailing when replies are slow.
They keep showing up when it would be easier to shrink back.
Faith during recruiting looks like:
✔ Controlling what you can control
✔ Staying prepared for the opportunity you can’t yet see
✔ Believing your timeline doesn’t have to match someone else’s
You don’t need instant proof.
You need steady belief.
Trust the work.
Trust your preparation.
Trust that the right fit is worth waiting for.
The athletes who combine patience, persistence, and belief in themselves?
Those are the ones who walk onto campus confident — not just because of where they’re going, but because of who they became in the process.
