I’ve been boggling my mind for the past few days over what to write about in my guest post. Fortunately, Eileen posted about something that I can definately identify with. The struggle with vocation, and what it is, exactly, that we’re called to do.
I decided this week that I most likely will not be continuing as a computer engineering technology major. I will be transferring back to liberal arts, finishing what I have to finish (if anything), and graduating with a associates degree in liberal arts. It’s an exciting yet terrifying place where I am now. On the one hand, I’m relieved to almost be done. On the other, I didn’t quite expect or plan to be in the position I am now quite so soon.
I’m searching for a job. Currently, I’ve got one prospect. A clothing company by the name of Maax is looking for a art/marketing director (with a concentration in web design). I sent my resume last night, they emailed me back this morning thanking me for my application and asking if I had any design samples. I sent them my samples tonight. I don’t know how good of a chance I have at getting a job with this company, but I’m praying that the chances are good. They seem like a neat company to work for. But you can’t put your eggs in one basket, I need to keep looking for other things…
I don’t really know what I’m called to do for my vocation. I’ve been leaning towards web design, but I dont’ really know… I know things will all work out in the end, and I will end up exactly where God wants me to be. But, I can’t help but wonder sometimes how I’m going to get there…
I’ve been wondering about that too, exactly how to know where it is that God wants you to be. Those big flashy signs that God sends really only happen in the movies, not it real life. But I guess what you said is true, even if we aren’t sure now, we just have to trust that God is going to get us there somehow.
do you think that maybe “where am I supposed to be?” is most of the time just answered by God, “with Me”? kinda like my kids, asking where we’re going and “how much further?” – and me hoping they just enjoy the ride and the company š
