Introducing: My Best Friend. My Big Sister.

Hey!
This video below is of Melanie Carmon. She goes to Christ for the Nations in Dallas, TX where I'm about to attend. She has been my best friend for more than a year now. She has brought me through the hardest times of my life when I was sick. She encouraged me like no one else had. Also, she has led me to CFNI which was undoubtedly a work of God to have us become so close. She has become my big sister. I could not be more proud of her in going to school, singing, ultimately going out of her comfort zone and letting God do His will upon her life. He has matured her so much and it's already been a year. I can't wait to see what He has in store for her in the future. Give it a listen. Leave a comment.

ACCEPTANCE!


Hey everyone!!!!
So today was the day of not only me being totally exhausted and sick, but the day I got accepted to Christ for the Nations! I am officially going and could not be happier! I am on the right path to God's plan and it's a go! Now, I just have to finish High School. Man, what a drag that's going to be! Ha. Well, I'm sure my parents want to slow down time though. That's their job. They do it very well and I'm proud to say how much I've learned from them in so many aspects of life. Thank You. And thank you to all of my friends and extended family so saw me through the process of selecting a school my parents and I agreed on. Oh and my guidance counslor. Since CFNI isn't accredited, it was obviously a work of God that had them all agree on me going there! My dad actually just said to me the other day, "You know, I'm really happy and excited for you to go to CFNI. You're going to really grow there." That meant soooooo much to me since he was the one that really really opposed me going there. God really has blessed this decision and I can't wait to go!!!
Amen!
