Send Cheyenne to Bayside College

Friends and family, as many of you may know or not know, I am currently attending the State College of Florida pursuing a degree in nursing. This past semester I have received all the pre-requisite credits that I need to apply for the program; I planned to take the semester off to study for the entry exam so I can apply in the Spring. I had my plans laid out, or so I thought. But God had another plan for my life.
The past few months, He has been pushing me toward another college. A college that I have had my eye on for quite a while now. It continually popped back up in the littlest, craziest of ways. I constantly shrugged it off and convinced myself it was nothing. I made up excuses in my head as to why it couldn't work out for me, especially when it came to how far I was in nursing already and the finances I would so desperately need. But in that moment I was slapped back into reality and I heard God say, "Haha Chey, my daughter, I'm more than you think I am. You can be so stubborn! There is nothing I cannot do. Where I guide, I will provide. Listen. Test me, and you will see."
It was in those moments that I broke down. I asked myself, "Why? Why now, God? What will my family think? How is this going to work? I don't have that kind of money just laying around. You have the wrong girl. This is so inconvenient for me." Then I remembered that most times God asks you to do something, you will be inconvenienced. You have to be willing to go regardless of the circumstances or what those around you may be thinking.
I started to come to the realization that I was about to make one of the hardest, biggest decisions I will ever have to make: to trust God, to really trust Him. To go after what I want, what makes me the happiest.
So here I am, stepping out of my little circle of a comfort zone, taking a huge leap of faith. Because I know God has purpose and plans for me in Bayside College. I'm not sure where He is leading me, but I do know it is somewhere beautiful, somewhere greater.
I am happy to announce that I will be attending Bayside College this Fall on the 27th. Wow, I can't believe I just said that! Although I do not have the money to attend, I know it will come to pass and that I need to rest in His Word. I have been boldly praying about how this will happen because it totally beats my mind when and how I could possibly raise $10,200 on my own. I am willing to do anything and everything I need to do to raise this money. I am throwing my own understanding up in the air so that He can have my life to the full. I'm living for Him and at the end of the day, that's the only thing in this life that is going to truly matter. I want to be an example to my family, my friends, and the world that God is alive and working. I want Him to look down on me with a smiling saying, "That's my girl!" He is going to show up and show off here on my behalf.
I have made a gofundme account below and any donation (I mean any) at all, would be a huge blessing to me and my life. Even if I have to put nursing on hold, this is my dream right now. Thank you in advance- for reading this, supporting me, and/or donating! Much love and blessings to all.
