Too good!

I was going to go to bed, but then I remembered how great of a night I just had. How could I forget! For the past week, I've been struggling with not feeling good enough with my grades and feeling stupid. I sometimes feel like I'm not good enough to get into PT school. MY plan for MY life is I go to PT school (at Grand Valley) and then get my license and heal people. I want to be able to help people out by mission work eventually as well. However since my grades aren't up to par, I feel like I won't be able to do any of that. Then today happened. I had a meeting with my advisor and he made me feel like I'm not stupid for retaking a class. Also, tonight at Young Life, Jen talked about how we can glorify God in many different ways through what we plan to do with our lives. She used the story in Genesis 24 about Abraham following God's will to find Isaac a wife. He went out in search for Isaac and prayed to God that He would show him Isaac's wife. God answered his prayers. When the servant of Abraham went to meet Rebekah's family, he insisted on glorifying God before they ate. The servant obeyed God's will, followed it, and glorified Him.

It's okay to not know what we are going to do with our lives because God has a plan for us. He is going to use us in ways that we may or may not know to glorify Him. I thought that was really sweet! I think that we're supposed to be clueless sometimes with what to do with our lives. We can feel lost but God will direct us within time. GOD IS GOOD!

"Then the man bowed down and worshiped the Lord, saying, 'Praise be to the Lord, the God of my master Abraham, who has not abandoned his kindness and faithfulness to my master. As for me, the Lord has led me on the journey to the house of my master's relatives.'" Genesis 24:26-7
