Sadie Robertson Thanked God After Her Performance on "Dancing with the Stars" (Watch Video)

"Duck Dynasty" star Sadie Robertson has been wowing both judges and fan on "Dancing with the Stars." Alongside Mark Ballas this season, this Monday was no exception. Robertson and Ballas took on the rumba set to Rihanna's "Diamond" in a performance that earned them 35 out of 40 points from the judges' table. After hearing the scores, Robertson burst into tears. Unable to speak and covering her face with her hand, Ballas hugged her and offered words of encouragement.
Shortly after the show, Robertson took to Twitter in thanks to God for her achievements. "Thankful to my Father who has given me the opportunity to have this amazing experience on @dancingabc," she wrote. "I believe with all my heart He is the one in control of all things. ALL glory to God for this amazing journey."
Sadie is the granddaughter of Phil Robertson, founder of Duck Commander. Her parents are Korie Howard Robertson and Willie Robertson, the company's current CEO. She is the younger sister of John Luke Robertson. Never afraid to speak of her faith, Robertson is a Christian and attends Ouachita Christian School in Monroe, Louisiana. In 2013, she ranked thirty-sixth in the state of Louisiana for javelin throwing.
Along with the post was a photo featuring a Bible excerpt from John 20:29 NIV which reads: Then Jesus told him, "Because you have seen me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed." Later on, Robertson also added, "Hope y'all liked tonight's dance. I was nervous, but was so happy that it came together. Thank you for voting! #TeamQuackAttack."
Robertson's "DWTS" partner echoed her sentiments, assuring fans that he abides by Robertson's religious beliefs and preferences on "DWTS."
"My one priority here is her feelings and I wanted to honor them," Ballas said on Monday's program. "I wanted to find the perfect balance between being appropriate and still doing the correct dance, and I felt that I did that," he added.
