[Applause] all right well hopefully that means I helped you guys this week um I'm jul Shu MC Bernie and uh I was raised in the church I was a church kid since the time I was born um I became a pastor's kid actually at the age of five so I know what a lot of you guys are going through but you know I was like typical Church kid knew the right things to say knew how to blend in um and I had the privilege of coming to the first boot camp they ever did here when I was 17 years old in 2007 and I remember you know I thought I was a good kid I didn't do too much but Pastor Lou Ray labato Jr he preached Monday night and I don't even remember what he preached but all I know is I was like oh I need to get saved and I went to the altar I rededicated my life or dedicated my life to Jesus and honestly that was the best decision I ever made um never would have have ever thought that I would be up here being a drill instructor it's definitely a full circle moment but um I'm just so grateful for that boot camp I definitely didn't want to go I was 17 I was like that's ridiculous why am I going but it was the best decision um I carry that with me through High School obviously it wasn't easy I wasn't perfect but I had Jesus Christ and that was the the best thing my one of my biggest testimonies that I definitely want you girls to hear when I accepted Jesus he became my everything he became my best friend and when I got married my first kiss was on my wedding day amen I was a virgin until I got married and it's not because I'm perfect it's not because I didn't have temptations but it's because I had Jesus Christ and he kept me pure and when I was feeling all types of things when I was feeling lonely anything Jesus was there and now my husband and I actually were currently pastoring in the city of High Point North Carolina my life has just gone so many places that I never expected um it's a life I don't deserve but I know it's a life that any one of you guys can have I'm no better than anybody else I was just a church kid that was playing the game until I Surrender my life to God and if you do that and you really focus God would do the same for you [Applause]
