Waiting on the World to Change

The fact is.... it won't ever change for the better. Still, I find myself praying for people around me who have heard of God, but really have no idea of what it means to be in love with Jesus Christ.

The past couple of weeks I have been struggling with God's calling for my life. All throughout college it was like there was no doubt He intended for me to be a paramedic. However, the recent days have been quite the contrary. Most High has, I believe, allowed me to question (if u will) my abilities at this new job. I'm convinced it's either that or satan is trying to tear me down.. Probably a little of both.

Anyhow, I have been captivated to study Scripture and just sit in the presence of Almighty God on a near daily basis. Random things have happened like people joking about me going into the ministry and even my youth minister asking me when I was going to go to seminary. This hit me hard. Even my pastor's sermon seemed to be "dead-on" the topic.

Long story short, I have seeked the face of my Savior more the month of September than ever. Through Ezekiel and Jeremiah, my Father has spoken to me again that I am right where He wants me to be for the time being. That's not to say that His plan will move me in the future. But for now, I am sitting in his presence spending time with Him EVERYDAY! No matter if it is in the recliner, in my car before I clock in at work, or if I'm watching a patient take their last breath. I will praise and serve the Everlasting Father in ALL that I do.. I pray you will do the same for the rest of this week.
