Trinidad & Tabago Defender Marvin Andrews: "It is Magnificent to Serve the Lord"

Christian Today
|PIC1|Four years ago Trinidad and Tobago failed to qualify for the 2002 World Cup, but then even then central defender Marvin Andrews was confident they would quality in 2006:

The team has not made it to the 2002 World Cup, but I know that God will prepare a great way for the team to make it to the 2006 World Cup. I am just trusting in God to take the team to the 2006 world cup.

But if qualifying for the World Cup is important to the popular Glasgow Ranger’s defender, then even more important to him is his faith in Jesus Christ.

God really revealed himself to me that I need to draw closer to him, and that he may draw closer to me. The day I gave my life to Christ, everything changed after that. God has been awesome to me, since and after, and it is absolutely magnificent to be serving the Lord, and to be a born-again Christian is absolutely wonderful.
