What does the future hold?

That's an excellent question. Right now, I'm at a very strange place in life. It's my junior year of college. Things are starting to wind down; real life is approaching faster than I like. I've always been the type of person to think about the future. Most people think I'm crazy to be stressed over things that are at least a year away. Apparently, a year is a long time to most people. That is not the case with me. A year is like a week to me. I need to know what I'm doing with my life. Last week I went to a program on campus about stress. One of the girls there read the scripture that says "Be anxious for nothing". It definitely spoke to me. I need to stop being so anxious and let God order my steps. I've told myself to let God know what I my heart desires and He will decided whether or not it is right for me. Easier said than done.

Currently, Plan A after school is Teach for America. Plan B recently last night has become the Peace Corps. Both offer great opportunities for travel and service, things I love. Both are also two year commitments. You'd think I'd be okay with this since a year seems so fast to me. Well, I actually am okay with the time commitments. I've been itching to get out of Maryland for a while and my family knows. They support me in all of my endeavors. What am I worried about then? Getting in! I'm sure I have everything in me to make it, but I'm anxious. Here's where God steps in. All I can do is my best. He will handle the rest.
