Decisions, Decisions

Yikes! Only 10 more days of work left. Then what? Well, I’ll spend about 10 days on a mission trip, but then what? Contrary to popular belief I do not intend to just sit around and be a bum all day J  Times of transition are never easy, and I’m feeling the weight of all the things I need to decide, and how things are going to change. I’ve been feeling various shades of sick on and off for about a month now. I’m feeling very weary and unable to deal effectively with the challenges that are coming my way. What to do?

I finally got my long awaited email this morning, hearing back about a volunteer position I was interested in. Though I don’t really know any details at this point, there’s a possibility out on the table. What should I do? Is this where God wants me? Will I be happy there? Can I survive there? I feel super nervous about making such a big decision, or even, really, where to begin.


All these questions that I’ve been thinking about, and will continue to, I’m sure. I just want to know the right answer! While this may seem simplistic, I’m learning, and I have to keep reminding myself, that the answer to every question is JESUS! He is the center of all, the purpose of life, and the beauty of everything good. Somehow, someway, I just have to keep my eyes centered on the light of His presence, and walk always toward Him, whatever the particular steps may be. It’s really hard, but I have to take it one step at a time, remembering to praise Him in the sunshine and in the storm, and even in the silence. In the end, that’s the only decision that matters anyway.
