This Vow to Myself

I vow to do what the Lord wants me to do... not the people in this world. Because He is the only one I am going to have to answer to in the end, not the people in which I encounter on this journey. This means I have to use my God-given talents and interests to do His Will.

I don't want to be stuck in an office all day everyday. I don't want to be stuck in a lab until the wee hours of the night. I want to travel; I want to see this wonderful, beautiful world that God has created. I really truly believe that he wouldn't have gone through that much trouble of creating the entire world if it wasn't meant to be seen.

Jesus died so we could live- not just survive, LIVE! Not be stuck doing something day after day that we hate and that we're doing just because that's what people expect of us.

Now I know that no matter what I do, God willed, is going to be difficult and it's going to be challenging at times. But the thing is, I think I've already completed the hardest part: realizing that the world should not dictate what I should do. I don't have to cure cancer- that may not be what God wants me to do. Just because biochemistry is what I've been saying for years now, doesn't mean that I can't change the path I'm taking, as long as it's for God's glory.

So I my major is UNDECIDED. I have no clue what I want to do in school and in life. All I know is I want to serve God, now and forever.

Corey Anne, this is beautifully said. I think you know how I feel about this. We can be undecideds together. :)
