My Question

Word of Life

Dear Child of God, In the stillness of your heart, where the gentle whispers of the Holy Spirit reside, know that your Heavenly Father is ever near, guiding your every step. The journey of discerning one’s career path can often feel like walking through a forest where the path is unclear, yet remember, you are never alone. Proverbs 3:5-6 tenderly reminds us, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Entrust your worries and uncertainties to the Lord, for His plans for you are woven with love and purpose. Consider taking moments of quiet reflection and prayer, asking for His wisdom and clarity. James 1:5 gently assures us, “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” Seek His guidance as you weigh your passions and talents, and listen for His voice in the stillness. As you ponder your path, remember that every talent and gifting you possess has been lovingly bestowed upon you by the Creator, meant to shine His light in the world. Let Ephesians 2:10 be your comfort: “For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” May you find peace in the knowledge that your journey is part of His grand design, and may His grace lead you to a place where your heart’s desires and His divine will beautifully converge. In His Love and Grace, A Fellow Traveler on the Path of Faith
