Ever had that moment of what am I going to do with my life? I had that last week, except it was more of freaking out about college. (Truth be told I'm still freaking out a little bit) It is so hard to trust God and know that He will guide you in what He wants you to do, not what YOU want to do, but what HE wants you to do. I have some ideas of what I want to do, but I don't know if it is what I will actually do or if it even is what God wants me to do. I don't know about you, but it's really hard for me to trust God that He knows what He is doing. I've been struggling with this lately, trying to figure out what God wants me to do. Next year I'm going to be a senior, if this year is going to be anything like last year it is going to fly by. Where do I want to go to college? What should I do with my life? Should I even go to college? These question have been floating around in my mind. You need to know that God has a specific plan for you, He is going to open the doors to lead you in what you do. We need to grasp this; we need to cling to this fact. In the end, it is our choice if we fill follow Him. What will you choose?
"For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans for a hope and a future." ~Jeremiah 29:11

Natalie,
A Navigator ministry leader responded to my question, "How do I know the will of God?" He responded by saying, "A good quiet time doesn't hurt." This is just spending time w/God in His word and enjoying your relationship w/Him. Through this, it gives you time to share your heart w/Him and in turn, He shares His w/you. Send me your e-mail and I'll send you some info that might help you w/this time--I'm at tbphyther@yahoo.com and I am enjoying the book of Jonah right now. Just relax and don't stress it--Phil 4:6,7 and Rom 12:1,2.
Have a great day,
Mr. B
Thank you Mr. B! That helped a lot, I will be sending my email to you very soon. :)
You make a great point! I've definitely been struggling with this too! Just figuring out what to do even right now! Where God wants me to excel and where he wants me to hold back. Great post Natalie!
