| I seem to be in a never ending downward spiral that is my life. Its not that I think that I have a bad life, I have a great life. I have a job, Im going to school, I have great freinds, I have a loving God. So I don't have any reason to complain, which is not the reason for my post. It just so happens that I've been thinking a lot about what life is and what life is going to do to me, and I realize that I don't think I'll ever grow up. I have landed on a career choice that really seems to fit me well. I am doing really well in my classes, which should help in me returning to the school that I really what to go to. As I look at my life though, I realize that I will never really want what I have, Ill be content with what I have, I wont complain with what I have, I wont do anything that will comprimise my Christian life for what I want. As I notice other peoples life, I sometimes wish I were them. I look at other career choices and I wish I were doing that. I have this perpetual feeling of what I have, isnt what I should have, but I've tried quite a few things out, and they dont seem to work as well as what I have planned for my life. Is this a normal thing? Does everybody have this feeling in thier life? Am I the only one who thinks that the choices they have made might be wrong even though they are working out so well? Do I need to talk with someone to see if I am really happy with my choices, or just telling myself that I'm happy so I dont have to search anymore. I ask myself these questions and I pray about them, I've come to a conclusion that seems to work out well. I used to have a huge conviction that God had a plan for you, he would reveal this plan to you, and if you choose something wrong, you would be screwed for the rest of your life. I stressed out over this for a very long time. I think it had an effect on my schooling and might be a reason that I took so long to figure out a career that worked well for me. After three years of school I found the career that fits me best, but I still have doubts about whether its the right career in Gods eyes. After contemplating this I came to the cunclusion that as long as you are living your life as best you can for God, your life will be in Gods plan 100%. It really does not matter what you are doing career wise and what-not. God has his plan for you, He knows what it will be, and He is not stressing out about if I chose the right career. All I need to do is live, don't do things that are agains God's eternal will, and Gods plan will be complete. |
