My mother believes in religion because she faced many challenges growing up alone, but overcame them through her belief. I can relate because I've also faced difficulties early in life. My friend Vernadeth believes everything happens for a reason and that though life is uncertain, having faith in God's plan gives her hope. Like her, I don't feel in control of my path but believe there is purpose. My cousin Jacob believes God guides his dreams and aspirations as an athlete, and turns his doubts into opportunities through qualification or failure.
