I AM SO THANKFUL THAT THE LORD

BROUGHT ME TO CCC. AS A FRESHMAN,

my goal was not to see how the Lord could use

me. I lived selfishly. Fortunately, through ex­
%

cellent chapel speakers and the examples of godly

faculty and friends, I began to grow in the Lord.

I realized the importance of putting Christ first.

In chapel, class, and church, the prevailing prin­

ciple is “It’s all about Him.” We are here on this

earth to bring honor and glory to Him. If there’s

one thing I’ve learned at CCC, it’s this: stop liv­

ing selfishly, and start living for Christ.

I HAVE HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF BEING ■

RAISED IN A CHRISTIAN FAMILY. MY PAR-

ents showed me the path of salvation at a young

age. I am blessed to have a background focused

on the Lord Jesus in my home, church, school,

and even in some of my jobs. Luke 19:48 refers

to the responsibilities of such blessings. Even

though I am not majoring in an area of full-time

Christian service, I pray that the Lord will help

me to serve Him in an amazing fashion.

I HAVE LEARNED MANY INVALUABLE LES­

SONS FROM FRIENDS. I BECAME A CHRIS-

tian as a direct influence of a roommate’s testi­

mony at camp before coming to college. The godly

examples of my friends and roommates have

aided me in my growth. The lesson that has most

shaped my daily decisions and endeavors is I

need to fear God and not man. I am excited to

see how the Lord will use my experiences as a

proctor as preparations for my future ministry.
