hi! im so happy you’re here!!
with being a senior in high school, I’ve always thought the whole college thing was an easy next step. for me, it was nothing like that when it really came down to it.
I had let anxiety get the best of me and ultimately, let the enemy tell me, I wasn’t strong enough to leave the comfort of my life. thoughts ran through my head a thousand times a day saying, what if this isn’t the place God wants me to go? what if i was ruining the plan God had created for me?
friends, let me just tell you right here… YOU CANNOT WRECK GODS PLAN FOR YOUR LIFE!
I think something i struggle with is thinking i have more control over my life than i truly do. this puts so much pressure on one single decision. i experienced this in my own life and it is truly paralyzing! a sweet mentor in my life told me that as long as i am glorifying God wherever i am, he will, and can use me. once i realized this, i felt the anxiety flee my body in a matter of seconds. when i think of a plan specifically curated for me, i imagine step by step where he wants me to go and that’s truly just not it.
yes, He has orchestrated my life and has an end goal but the small steps in between is just about me choosing to glorify Him with my every step.
the churchy thing to say is “what’s God’s will?” but honestly, i’ve learned over the past few months, there isn’t just one path. when you understand this, the freedom of being in relationship with the Lord starts to wipe out all the lies of the enemy telling you you’re ruining it all.
i finally bit the bullet by picking a school and the Lord truly orchestrated all the details in between. I may not know all the details of my next four years, but i do know that if i am seeking to glorify the lord in everything that i do, his plan for my life will be fulfilled.
i hope you find this as encouragement for any season of life you’re in, and find comfort in knowing all the Lord asks of us is to make him known wherever we are. we don’t have to study theology to be an advocate for Jesus Christ!
praying peace over every soul that’s reading this and my hope is that my testimony of God’s faithfulness in my life, will encourage you too.
thank u for spending time w me!
