What's next?

With one more year of college around the corner, one question frequently seems to be asked. "What are you going to do with your life?" A question I don't know if I will ever be able to answer my whole life. Taking a dive into the "real world" is rapidly approaching. Up until this point it seems as though  there weren't many choices to be made on my part except for Vanguard University, my school of choice. What's next... more school? get a job?  look into starting a family? move to another state or country for that matter? Is the perfect answer waiting right in front of me only by fate to fall under my footsteps? I believe God has a will and a purpose for my life. It can really be aggravating at times left to ponder what my next step may be. It seems almost selfish in a sense to plan where I will be in the future. Who is to say I may have another breathe? Life is such a precious gift, yet we tend to waste what little we do have. As created beings of the Almighty God, we are to honor and glorify Him with our lives. So which ever be my last... may every breathe seek to glorify the One of whom all worth is due. Though I compile my own plans, they are but little to where God may lead me. I think the song writer says it best "Take my life and let it be all for you and for your glory". So... it is okay that the question "What are you going to do with your life?" remains a list of questions and maybes. The only legitimate answer I hope and strive for is to glorify my God wherever I may find myself. Amen.
