“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. For those God foreknew He also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters” (Romans 8:28-29, NIV)

10 years ago, someone asked me what I wanted to do with my life. I was 18 with the world at my fingertips, not a clue what the next decade would hold. Walking across the stage at my high school graduation gave me more than butterflies. Opportunity and fear were an aroma I breathed in the next few months. 

After attending a private Christian college, I thought I’d know what my life would look like. I majored in English for high school students and biblical studies because I knew it was a safe career. But at twenty-three, I found myself stuck in a job I knew wasn’t for me. For the last five years, I poured myself into those students. I knew God was using me where I was, but I also knew He called me to somewhere greater.

Looking back to when I was 18, I now realize it’s 10 years later, and I’m 28 and still just as clueless as I first began. While I think I’m inching closer to this thing called “my calling,” I’m wrestling to figure out what that looks like and entails.
