Today at church Bishop talked about this and I realized that I had been thinking about this lately too.
Two months ago, if you had asked me where I was gonna be in a year or so, I could have told you exactly where I was gonna be. I was pretty certain about a couple of things.
But in the months of April and May, all of those certainties have turned into uncertainties. I graduate in December and I have no idea what I'm doing after I have that diploma in my hand. People ask me what I'm gonna do, where I'm gonna go, and I just tell them I have no idea. And honestly, I feel like they judge me for my lack of an answer. There are tons of areas of my life that are just so up in the air that I have no clue how to even begin to guess how they might turn out.
You know what though? I don't care. Because there are a few things that I'm certain of, and if I stick with what I do know then I know I'll be fine.
- I have a Heavenly Father who knows me and loves me and is guiding my life in the way that really is best for me, even though I can't see why that is right now.
- My Savior is there to comfort me and help me through the rough times.
- The church is true. I can't go wrong as long as I stand by that.
- I have family and friends who love and care about me and will always be there to help me. I am there for them too.
Those things I know. So that's what I'm going to focus on. Sure, I don't know what I'm going to do with my life when January comes around. Yeah, it's scary and I hate not knowing, but I'm not worried. Why? Because of those four things I just listed up there.
So when you feel like you are lost and everything is so uncertain in your life, just stop. Sit down, grab a piece of paper and a pen and jot down a list of just a few things that you know without a doubt. Then, go from there.
