Questions in Life

There are times in one's life when you have to ask yourself questions. There are different question for the different stages in life. In high school, or even before, you have to ask yourself; What college am I going to go too? What do I want to do with my life? Or where do I want to go in life? In my world and the world of the Christian, we ask ourselves, or should; What does God want me to do? Where does God want me to go? Often times it is not met with an answer as quickly as we would like. That's where our faith comes in. We need to have faith that God is going to take care of us and that even when hard times come, when we feel like he isn't there, he really is, and through our hard times he is teaching us something that, if we are wise and are paying attention, will develop who we are into what God wants us to be. We talked today in our all staff devotions about trusting God even when we don't understand. When we don't see where he is taking us, but having faith that God knows best. That was really something that I needed to hear because it is something that I have been struggling with a lot lately. This last year or so has been a time where I have really had to trust that God has me in the right place. It's been hard at times because I am away from the people I am closest too. My family and friends are all in California and I am in Missouri. I am torn by this, because I love what I am doing, I love the people I work with, and I even enjoy living in Missouri. I have new family and friends here in Missouri. I am very happy with the 8am-5pm aspect of my life. So I find myself asking God what he has planned for me. My prayer is this; Lord help me to trust that your plan is best. It's a simple prayer yet it is so difficult when your just not happy about it all the time.
So the question remains, Lord where are you taking me?
