For the past few weeks, I have really been struggling to realize what God has planned for my life. I retook an exam that I needed to pass to get into my program, and I did not pass it. I studied for months for this exam, and still did not get the score that I needed, so now I am stuck trusting God with my life. I have to figure out what I want to study, and what I want to change my major to. I have been stuck in a season of frustration with everything that has been going on with school.
I am so thankful for my friends who have been so encouraging to me and have pointed me back to the Word each time I start to stumble. I have a strong faith, and I know God will pull me through somehow. But I just wish at this point in my life I could sit with God over coffee, and have Him tell me what He wants for me.
I try to listen to God in the quiet time that I have, but I can never hear Him clearly. I read Psalm 27 the other day and it was an amazing passage to read. My friend recommended it to me, and I just sat in awe when I was reading it. It was everything that I needed to hear at that moment. I still don't know where He is leading me right now, but I keep going to the Word and leaning on friends in this season of my life. God has everything planned out of me, and I am just trying to trust His plan. completely.
"The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life — of whom shall I be afraid?" — Psalm 27:1
