God Chose Me to Be Wise

I believe in something that brings positive outcome. In one case, it's college. I have decided not to attend a college when I am unsure, and especially when my gut is telling me it's a bad idea! My heart is whispering for me to be patient. If God wishes for me to go to college, He will lead me in that direction and let me know where I will go and what for. It was a worry-until I gave it to my God, and it will stay with him. I personally think it is a waste of time, to go to college cutting hair and doing makeup (what I thought of doing) just because I'm "suppose to", it's the "normal thing to do", and if you don't, you stay behind and live in mommy and daddy's house. Hmm...what a stereotype! I stand against it. In some cases that is true, but in mine, I don't think so. If I did however find a career, it would be guided by God, and it would need to be something that involved my King, an environment where I could express myself and feed others hope. Otherwise I would not be happy about it. Mind you, this is my opinion on attending college coming right out of high school.
   Everything I do is carefully done. Even reading books! I use to read fantasy novels, and romance based genres...but I got nothing from it, it was a waste of my time and it put silly ideas in my head that I didn't want there! Clouding my vision and making things look "okay"-which they aren't. Society has a much different outlook on love and romance than God himself does (THE CREATOR OF LOVE AND ROMANCE- h e l l o ). I read books now that I get actual useful knowledge from! Knowledge that I can apply to my life, and to others willing to listen (or not). It wasn't just books I wasted my time on! Magazines, high drama TV shows, movies and basically all the media that surrounded me, I fed of it...it was almost like my media diet! When in actual reality, I was letting the world take away my precious time and it was the perfect distraction to lure me away from a God who just wanted to show that he loved me and that there's better out there..and I'd push him away. I bet that made him really sad inside. Our seconds are ticking by here on this Earth, our moments are disappearing before our eyes and we don't even know it. Trust me. Our time here is shorter than we think...God is coming.
     We have this crazy idea, that we humans can 'create' our own fate and future, which of course includes our soul mate, our friends and the perfect career. When really, we have no say in that! God does. He didn't just make us, stick us on the earth and say, "Okay! Go plan your lives and find your own partner. Make decisions on your own! I made you, now you do the rest". He created us, and we come with a plan and a purpose. Doesn't that sound much better, to know we are being taken care of and somebody actually wants what is best for us? I thought so anyways.God loves you and wants what is best, we are his children after all. Also, he provides long-term happiness! Isn't that great?! No other God could provide that. Right now, I enjoy learning more and more about my King I plan to serve the rest of my days for...and to develop the skills that I can use to win souls for Christ. I am aware of the time I have, and I prefer to use it wisely.
