Nearly every young Christian I know struggles with this question: What is God's calling for my life?
This is a continuous struggle and question in my life.
Today I listened to a young girl, barely older than myself, give this wise advice:
She said that people had always told her that she was great with kids and would make a wonderful teacher. She adores kids. She finds joy in them. She questioned whether becoming a teacher was God's calling on her life or if it was just something that she was making out to be His calling because people had always told her she was good at it.
She realizes now that God's calling is something inside of us, some small part that we simply cannot ignore. God's calling on our life brings joy/blessings to both ourselves and others. Do not let the enemy convince you that it is just something you have made up in your head. Follow God, and listen to his calling.
Lord, let me be aware of your soft voice speaking in my life. Let me discover this beautiful calling you have on my life and follow it passionately.

Kim that's so great! the Lord is so good; this is a lot of what I learned on my trip. The way He makes us and uses our experiences and personality to put a specific calling on our life is amazing and beautiful!! I love you :)
