Many men who have not chosen their careers, but have had their careers chose them go through it. There comes a point when we are given a holy restlestness, and got speaks out of that, and we are more likely to move and hear Him. And then, there is a carnal part of us that is dissatisfied and anxious and prone to overthinking. So...I ask myself no longer, "God what is your will for my life?" I ask the Lord, "Lord, what is your will for today. Help me hear you, and obey you, and go where you lead." It seems to me that I end up on the right path a far greater majority of the time than when I try to set the telescope too far. Sometimes the short steps give slimpses of the far. Sometimes...they lead me to take out the trash without feeling bitter that nobody else did it. Either way...my character is on the path to professional holiness. I hope you find what you're looking for. Great blog. Great perspective. Great articulation. The cool thing is...you DO know exactly how you feel and why...I think blogging is so great for that. Blessings...and forgive the totally random rambling. You aren’t the only one going through it. Many men who have not chosen their careers, but have had their careers chose them go through it.
