  • #1 Tailon Leitzsey - DB at University of Illinois

    To me, giving God glory is a minimum requirement. If you knew my story from beginning to now, you would understand why. My life, from the very first breath I took, has been challenged. I thank God daily for every breath I take. To me, waking up every morning means God has a purpose for me, and I’m thankful for the opportunity to walk out the journey to discover that purpose.

    At 13, I started asking myself why. Why am I here? What’s my purpose? However,  the real game changer was when I started asking God— why? 

    Here’s what I found: building legacy is living in freedom. When I work today toward the hope of a better life for the next generation, I am free to live in the moment. 

    The dream in my heart is big, but I am committed to seeing it through. I will share my story and my understanding of the world around me. I will connect with people and encourage the good in their life. Today, I will focus on the daily details of building a strong platform that will serve, educate, and empower the next generation.
