Tim was getting used to his new life in Denver. At first, it was hard to get use to the air and humidity in Denver, but Tim had gotten use to the cold air up in Denver. His Denver team was not as good like the Florida Gators. The team had lost their first twelve games. Eventually, Tim Tebow`s team started to win a couple of games. Tim was happy that they started to win some games. After all, Tim pray`s that his team will win every single game of the season. Even though, he is away from his family, he knows that God is with him all the time. Going away from your parents can be hard, but Tim Tebow was not worried about his parents at all. I do not know what I would do without my parents because they are a big part of my life. Trusting God was big for Tim and also for me. I have learned a lot of things from Tim Tebow, but most of all is trusting God.

The Draft and Denver
As time passed, Tim was getting ready for the NFL Draft. This meant a lot to Tim and his family. He had no idea who would drafted him. A lot of people were saying that he might go to the Denver Broncos. That did not matter to Tim at all, because whatever team he played for he was going to do his best every single game. Tim decided to stay home for the NFL Draft. He wanted to be home with family and friends. When the announcer came out and walked onto the podium, he then announced Tim Tebow`s name for the first round pick. He was drafted to the Denver Broncos. Tim was so happy and thankful that he called the Denver Bronco`s coach. He was so excited that he had gotten first round pick. All Tim could do was thank God for putting him with the right team. Tim wanted to be on a good team, but somewhere were he could start. So Tim was thankful he was on a good team. I realize that you do not have to be on a good team, but somewhere that you have a reationship with your teammates.

Tim`s Last Season
It was Tim Tebow`s last year being a Flordia Gator. He wanted it to be the best season of his college career. Tim made a promise to the Gator nation and said, " We are going to win a BCS National Championship Game". With a great record it was enough to get the Flordia Gators into the Championship Game. Tim and his teammates had faith in each other all season long. Before you know it they had gotten into the BCS Championship. Their opponent was Alabama. They were a tough team to beat, but that did not stop the gators. With out a doubt, the Flordia Gators came out ready to play. They beat up Alabama so bad, they started crying. That did not matter to The Flordia Gators because they were National Champions. Tim Tebow was feeled with lots of joy and excitment. After all, Tim was sad to leave Flordia, but that did not stop him of his biggest dream. Playing in the NFL. I have learn a lot of things from reading this book, but one thing that inspired me was to never give up. Tim never gave up on his games, so I never give up on my basketball games. As long as you keep going at it, you will never give up at anything you do.

Playing My First Game
As the next day arrived, Tim was getting ready for his first game of the season at The University of Flordia. He was a little bit scared at first, but Tim knew he would play excellent in his first game. The Flordia Gators first opening home game was against Southern Mississippi. Tim was so excited to walk onto the football field surrounded by thousands of energized fans. As Tim Tebow took the field for his very first time, he was so hyped up. Also, was his teammates. Unfortunley, The Gators lost 20-14, but overral Tim Tebow thought he played an excellent game. So did his teammates and Tim `s coaches. After all Tim Tebow was not scared, he was glad he conquered his fear, and glad to be a Gator. I believe that if you go out and conquer your fear you will succed, but if you just sit around you won`t conquer your fear. I realize that if only if you just have faith in one another you will win. All of these things, have taught me to never give up and never say "NO". Just keep going at it and you will succed.

Where To Go?
As time flew by, Tim Tebow had gotten his first recruiting letters. He was amazed by how many recruiting letters he had gotten in one day. Tim was so tired of reading letters, that he did not go to school the next day. He had a lot of letters that he just did not know where to go. All Tim could do was trust in God. Tim and his parents prayed about what college he should go to. It was a real tough decision for Tim, but he had to go somewhere. Then he realized that both of his parents went to The University of Flordia. Flordia was not that far from his hometown. Tim Tebow decided to go to The University of Flordia. His family thought that it was a great choice and so did Tim Tebow. I thought choosing the University of Flordia was a great choice for Tim. Even though he had colleges sending him mail and emails everday, Tim made a right choice to go to a college where his family members went. I realize that you just have to make the right decision to go to whatever college fits you best and you will succed in whatever you do.

Philippines, Football, and Faith
When Tim Tebow turned fifteenth, he soon could go to the Philippines with his dad on a mission trip. He was raised with joy in telling people about Jesus. Going back to the Philippines was something to remember for Tim. As time passed, it was time for Tim Tebow to get focus on high school football. He went to a private school called Nease. Tim played football and lead his team to an undefeated season. He told his team just to have faith in each other. Believe it or not, his teammates had faith in each other and went on to have two underfeated season. All in all, I think Tim had a great high school football season. This shows me that, you should always believe in your teammates, classmates or whomever. Just have faith in each other and you will succed at whatever you do.

The Early Years of Tim Tebow
Tim has hardly changed since he was a little boy |
The beginning of the book talks about how much Tim Tebow loves all types of sports. Tim grew up playing every sport you can think of. However, he was truly passionate about football. Tim did not have a normal life like most little boys. His parents home schooled him as a little boy. His parents did not want him to go to public school, because they thought it would be too much work for Tim. Tim was taught by his mother, who had already retired from a teaching job. Being taught at home did not stop Tim from his biggest dream, playing football. I think Tim had a good dream because it shows that he was very passionate about his dream. Some people just give up on their dream, but gladly Tim did not give up on his dream. Even though he had other dreams in mind, he wasn`t going to bail out on his biggest dream.
