So.
Here’s the thing.
I am scared to death about my future.
I’m going to graduate from college in just a couple of
months!
And then I’m going
to…
Well. That’s where the fear kicks in. I don’t know what
comes next.
See, I know God has a plan all set out for me. I don’t
doubt for a second that He has already routed every path I’m going to choose. And
I know He has pre-configured the coordinates into my feet for each step I am ever
going to take. But that doesn't mean that I have any idea where I’m going.
I want to do radio. That’s not a secret to anyone who a)
follows me on twitter b) has talked to me for more than three minutes. I've
already begun researching jobs. I point out antiques and say things like, “That
will be so cute in the apartment I am going to have!” I secretly practice radio
things in my head and when I’m alone. I’m so excited at the prospect of jumping
into radio and living on my own in my own little apartment and maybe getting a
cat. Definitely getting a cat. Or a squirrel. We’ll see.
But, a midst the excitement, here’s the fear: What if I
get a job in radio, but it’s in some state that I’m not even sure of the
abbreviation for? What if I don’t live somewhere that is in my comfort zone? Or
even, what if I live somewhere completely in my comfort zone? I want adventure! In the great, wide
somewhere! I want it more than I can tell! But, what if the adventure I want
and the adventure God wants -- are different?
I don’t think I have a resolution for you. Or for me, for
that matter. I just thought I would share that I am scared about the
future. Not in a bad way. God’s in
control. Just in a… scared way.
I am very small and God is very big and I will end up
precisely where He means for me to.
That’s what I need to remind myself of, and
that should be quite enough.
