I am scared.
This whole "what you choose to do right now will completely change the course of the rest of your life" thing is a lot to swallow. I know that God is completely in control and I'm not worried about whether or not my Savior will come through for me in the end. Jer. 29:11 removes all doubt of what God has in store. However, action is still required. Abraham couldn't just sit there and receive the land God had promised him, he had to get up and move.
I will not jump without somewhere to land. Period. Stop. All that does is show immaturity, impatience and a lack of trust in the Almighty. There's much more to life than money.
Money is only a means of providing for my future family and enjoying some amenities life has to offer. I couldn't possibly care less about being rich. No amount of money could ever buy significance or satisfaction. No amount of money could ever purchase a healthy, God-honoring marriage or children with a fervent and passionate zeal to follow Christ. Those two things are infinitely more important to me than my career. I believe whole-heartedly that when you take a spouse, they become your partner in ministry. If and when God blesses you with children, those children become an extremely important focus of your ministry.
All that being said, I'm at a crossroads in my life. I've never encountered real defeat. I've never failed to meet a goal that received my full attention. These next few weeks will determine the direction my life will veer in the years to come.
Whether it's continuing to strive for medical school or finding God's home for me somewhere else...I'd greatly appreciate your prayers. Please pray for humility, courage, wisdom, discernment, supernatural revelation of God's sovereign will for my career path, etc.
Thank you in advance.
Be blessed, my friends...
