So...I've never really blogged. I'm not even really sure why I am now other than my co-worker, Julie, was creating a blog yesterday and I thought, "Why not?" So...here goes.

I've been doing a lot of thinking lately. (Scary I know, but bear with me.) I'm about to graduate again. This time, with my MBA. (MY MBA!!!!) I really never planned to get a Master's degree, let alone a Master's in Business. Now, as I sit here one month away from graduation, I realize something very important and very frightening. I still haven't a clue what I want to be when I grow up. I'm 26 years old and will have two degrees and I don't know what I'm going to do with them. I've had a lot of people tell me this is ok. They say it's natural and that a lot of other people have the same issue. You know what the problem is with people telling me that? It doesn't, in the least bit, make me feel any better about my circumstances. The fear of the unknown is still there. The fear that I'm not going to find a job is still there. The fear that I'm going to find a job that I hate is still there. And yet...when I get anxious and nervous about it, peace washes over me.

The peace comes from knowing that although I feel helpless and lost, God is there. He is holding me in the palm of His mighty hand and I know I am safe. I know He will guide me. I know this because He has ALWAYS been faithful. ALWAYS.
