I have been going to school for 15 years of my life now. Every fall brings new pens, notebooks, books and teachers. That is how it has always been, for as long as I can remember. I just turned 20, and should be starting my Junior year of college. But I'm left thinking why I went in the first place. I am a planner, list maker, and over thinker. Everything I do, I make sure has a purpose and is planned out with every T crossed and I dotted. Well, I'm tired of that. I went to college because that was what I was supposed to do. So for the last 2 years I have wrestled with the "picking a major" issue that every student seems to struggle with. But it made me think, if I knew what I wanted to major in, it would make this whole college experience relevant.
So, I have made a decision that is right for me. For once it's not because some one told me to, or because it's what is expected. It is where God is leading me. This fall semester I have decided to take a break. I will live life and hopefully this journey will help me figure out my passion in life. I am leading a small group at church, teaching a Spanish class, working and trying to find volunteering oppertunities to help me figure out Gods plan for me!
Pray for me! This journey will be exciting and fun! I'm ready to see what God does when I don't have a plan, but just follow instead.
Jeramiah 29: 11
For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.
I'm so proud of you! You go girl! Wherever God leads is the best place for you to be! Love you!
