Today was a day of understanding.
I understand that most people don't know what they're doing.
And I'm trying my hardest to respect that, because I sometimes don't know what I'm doing either.
Anyways I've been thinking a lot about what I'm going to do when I grow up. Well I mean I already know what I'm going to do, but I want to do a lot of things.
I want to be a missionary. Mostly because God is the only thing worth living for. AND because I want to make a significant difference in the life of people who are grateful and who don't know about God.
I also want to adopt kids. But it makes me think that when I get done with my missions work or when I come back home, I would be too old to start a family... So I have no idea what God has in store for me there. :\
But yeah maybe I'm getting too far ahead of myself.

you just gotta trust in god. thats really all their is to it i think. a missionary sounds like an awesome thing to do and i think you would be good for it. you've still gota few years to pray about what you want to do. just pray pray and pray some more about what you wanna do and strive for it once you've figured it out
Hannah, hannah, hannah... Already talking about kids and a family!! What is the world coming too??? ;D
I think you would make an awesome mom one day, and those you adopted will be so lucky! :) But yeah... You should focus on getting to where you want to go and God will do the rest! :) I know that's one of those "all of the above answers" but the more I live, the more I see it being a truth! I mean, I was supposed to have gotten married in Sept of 2007... I can't imagine that now!! I would be so miserable, there's not even words for it! I definitely haven't sworn of any of that, but I don't even care. My mom just randomly brought up the topic of me and marriage, like she always does ;D and she was just like, "John, I see you meeting some girl doing the exact same thing you're doing in some hole in the wall part of the world, because you wouldn't be happy with any other type of person!" For my mom to say that is huge!! Grandkids are on her mind, and that's about it! :D So yeah... Patience... :) I have this feeling God is going to give you everything you dream about and more, as long as you live for Him first! You're never to old to start a family!
Keep up the awesomness! ;D
I don't think you are getting to far ahead of yourself at all. Thinking about the future is something that I do a lot. Especially the whole kids and marriage thing and stuff. Just try not to worry about it and trust God. You never know what plans he has for you!
Have a good day!
Hannah,
I have had this same problem. well i dont want to say the same problem because that just kinda takes some meaning out of it or what not. But yea, I loved the mission trip that i went on. I think thats what i want to do but yet family is SOOO important to me. My family i already have and the one i want to have one day. I have looked at other options like working for world vision. I mean you can still do missions work but it doesnt have to be an all the time thing. i guess it really depends on what your wanting to do. But like someone posted already you just have to pray about it and let God guide you.
I have NO IDEA what so ever what im going to end up doing with my life. I will just take things as God gives them to me. =]
I really hope that things work out for you.
