In his career, he had 600 appearances for his home country, Liberia. In 1995, he was named the FIFA World player of the year and won the ballon d’or where he became the first and to date, the only African player to win this award. Also, in 1989, 1994 and 1995, he was named African footballer of the year, and in 1996, African player of the century. ODM Daily Devotional 2018 May 6 By Dr Chris Kwakpovwe
When he retired from football, he joined polities in Liberia and formed the congress for democratic change; he lost the presidential elections in 2005 in a bid to become vice president in 2011, but was elected into the senate in 2014. Finally, in 2017, he was elected the president of Liberia. Oh, says the power of determination and HOLDING ON!
Today’s scripture says in verse 7,”though thy beginning was very small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.” Wherever you are today, God can catapult (increase) you higher and higher if you KEEP SEEING WHERE YOU ARE GOING against all odds! I remember roger Crawford wrote “we are product of the choices we make, not the circumstances that we face.” president Weah finally became who he is today because he chose to hold on!

Then Ben Herbster concluded:” The greatest waste in the world is the difference between what we are and what we could become. ‘Indeed, GIVING UP IS A WASTER! George Weah has been described as a man who has lived a life in three acts-he moved from a childhood in the slums of Liberia’s capital, Monrovia, to Europe’s most famous football pitches and now Liberia’s hall of power as a president. I see you rising higher and higher!
