My faith was tested,I remember championships where I fell five times and I was going through an injury and I looked at my Mom and said why?

More quotes by Gabby Douglas

I did go through some negative things, but I feel like God has always been there with me.

I don't think I could have done it without my family being behind me every single minute, through the thick, through the thin.

I speak up because I have a voice and I spoke out for what I believed in.

I'm so glad I got to go to London and inspire young girls, or anyone really, to pass down my advice, to pass down the message and say anything is possible, if you just believe.

But I think God has a plan for everyone and God has just blessed me through thick and thin,I just sit down and say I'm just so blessed to be in this position right now.
