Session 1 Reflection

The choice to attend Colorado Christian University (CCU) has been a huge mental debate

for me. In high school I was always very into business classes, the why and how a business

functions, which lead to me earning my Associates Degree in business in August 2007 from

Lamar Community College (LCC). I unfortunately have not had the opportunity to put that

encouraging words and wisdom has been overwhelming, but at the same time is a huge part of

my driving force to succeed. I look forward to the challenges ahead of me in this new journey at

CCU. I know life isn’t always easy but that is not in God’s promise, He only promises that our

journeys will be worth the wait and struggles in the end. Knowing that God is always on my side

is such an amazing feeling and I am excited to say that my heart is once again on fire for Jesus

right along with my students
