It's Gonna Be Alright

March 26 2006

I'd written a post earlier, but my internet connection died right as I pressed "publish entry", so it never came out. It stinks, because I really can't write as passionately about it as I did earlier, but I'll give it a try. . .

I've been thinking alot about what I want to do when I graduate, and it kind of bothers me. I have so many friends going into teaching and nursing, careers that are labled "normal" among many. What I want to do isn't really considered normal, especially around here, and it's starting to scare me. I know that all it takes is trusting God, but I get random thoughts that get me down and make me think I should just get a "normal job". . . but I won't. Not unless that's what God has in store for me, and I have a feeling that what He has shown me is what He wants me to be a part of. Gah, it seems impossible, but even as I typed that, the verse that talks about everything being possible with God comes to mind.

'Cause I know my God saved the day

And I know His word never fails

And I know my God made a way for me

It's gonna be alright. . .

All the great changes in the history of mankind have been accomplished by those that were not "normal". Fear of difference is a common human trait; just ignore it and do what you feel is right.

Being not "normal" makes me excited! I couldn't imagine having a normal job, and I have tremendous respect for people that can do it.

I <3 Anna Miller!! Not being "normal" is something I think God calls us Christians to be in this world. He wants us to have different standards and wants to use each of us in so many different ways to affect different people and such. And I think God can use a person in any profession if they let Him use them to His glory. Even though I am in a major that is considered "the norm", I feel like God wants me there. I would do something else in a heartbeat if God wanted me to do so. Be proud that you are in a major that not many people are in.....that's awesome you are in a unique major like that. God can use you a lot in that profession! :)
