"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you," declares the LORD, "and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile."
(Jeremiah 29:11-14)
One thing stressful to any high school Junior is college. We grow up preparing for it always trying to be perfect to get there. And now that it is here I am stressed. I keep asking myself where I am going next? What else do I do? How do I just leave, how does someone just leave the nest? These are questions I used to think I knew and I still do know. But now that I am preparing my final year and a half or so with my family and in high school I tend to get stressed. I thought I always knew what University I was going to apply for, where I wanted to go. But the question I left out was... What plan does God have for me? He already has a plan and here I have been almost changing it. So do I think I know where I am going? Yes. But I want to go there trusting the Lord to guide me. So trust the Lord. I know that can be scary but He has a plan! He has a plan far greater than we know! Pray to Him and He will listen to you. He will protect you. Don't be afraid of your future, it will be great, we all have an important purpose we just have to wait and see what it is! God is love.
