She is a member of the National Soccer Hall of Fame and was named FIFA Female Player of the Century. To Michelle Akers, living for Christ has been a dream come true--the greatest dream of all. Since her retirement, she has continued to promote the game of soccer and has written several books, including one that documents her battle with chronic fatigue syndrome. Her health struggles continue, but now Michelle sees them as opportunities. "When you give yourself completely to God, He not only helps you through tough times, He uses those things to help you learn and grow as a person. You can then help others with their struggles." After winning the Gold Medal at the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, Michelle wrote in her journal: "My mind keeps returning to the past few years where I thought I was so alone, so isolated in my struggles and pain. God is so good. Through it all, He was preparing me for this moment, this experience. So faithful! He took it all away, but He gave me back so much more (Ephesians 3:19-20)." Michelle says, God filled her heart with a new dream, a new vision for her purpose in life. Today Akers dedicates herself to rescuing horses.
