My Future- Doug Savarie

As we draw nearer to the end of the semester, and the end of college for many of my friends, I have become more and more saddened and confused about what to do with myself after they have left CNU. I find myself constantly trying to figure out exactly how I will cope without the people I have grown so close to. After considering this predicament for quite a while, I have realized that I am looking inward for these answers when ultimately I know that I cannot find them in myself. In the gospel of Luke, Luke quotes Jesus as saying, “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you” (11:9). The point is that I do not need to stress myself out with thoughts of the future. I must rely on God and ask him about what is to come. Because of my relationship with him, I will be able to know what God’s will is (Romans 12:2). Furthermore, in the book of Jeremiah it says, “For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (29:11). Not only should I look to the Lord for answers about next year, but I also need to work on trusting in the plan that he has for me.
