I had a realization last night and I remembered something I wrote about a year ago... I don’t see much of a future for me. But I see myself growing wiser. Being a good person, helping others & making people smile. I see myself finding a husband & getting married someday. Having kids & being a fantastic mom, I feel like that’s what I was meant to do. If I can do all that & serve God while doing so, that’s all the future I need. & knowing I have that future to look forward to makes it a little easier to get past present struggles. When I wrote this I remember feeling defeated and hopeless of me ever succeeding anything on my own. While the post is not necessarily bad, it was my way of justifying me not even trying or working towards a higher education or career. I was chicken and I'll admit I wasn't trusting God in the matter either. I was right about one thing, I did grow wiser! It wasn't too long after I posted that status that I actually had the sudden desire to be a high school teacher and the confidence to look into college classes. The process took a while, but God directed me to the perfect college with an online option, and it was a Christian school! Not only did He direct me to the school, but has been guiding me through every class that has come my way. This came to my mind last night because my current class is wrapping up and I start my first education class in two weeks and it goes up a level in difficulty and what is expected. I was panicking and that's when I realized I was panicking with my first few classes too, but look where I am now, finishing my 7th! If God brought me through the first 7, He'll bring me through the next 7 and the 7 after that as well! So the next time you're nervous about completing something or starting a new chapter in your life, let your faith be greater than your fear. Step out on faith and see what The Lord has in store for you. -X Question? Concern? Advice?...
