Testimonies r definitely Welcomed!

I'm having a hard time in knowing what God wants me to do. I graduated 4th in class w/ a 3.9 GPA (little upset that I let senioritis bring down my 4.1 gpa). Anyway I can't find one college to go to! And everytime I think I do something happens where I can't go... I've been looking for a job, but hav eithr nvr got a call, was turned down b4 interview, got interview and no call back, and even spent a day working for them to see and no job! I'm a very hard-worker and extremely friendly and outgoing, and a lot of th time as college I thought I was going to get th job (they really seemed to want me to wrk for them) and was turned down.

As u can c God is closing these doors... I just can't get an answer for why? as a Christian I've done all I could do pray, hav people pray over me, hav people pray with me and still it's blank. Since I don't hav absolutely nothing to do I've done what any Christian loves to do, which is grow closer to God. yet, I still feel I must be wrong about this, or i'm being punished, or hav let God down somewhere. I just don't understand.

I need reassurance, encouragement, something to help me through brothers and sisters. I feel my future is not where it should be... I thank anyone who took th time to read this, and understand y if u don't. haha. it's super long u know :) God bless

We're never forsaken when we feel forsaken.

As soon as you have a job, or get accepted into a college, you won't have near as much time for other things as you have now. This is special time. This is time you should use wisely. Think about what God would have you do with this special time right now, that you won't be able to do later.

Maybe you need to spend extra time with your family, or spend more time in God's Word, or be involved in something at church, or learn some new skill, or study some special thing, or help someone who needs help... it could be any number of things. But once you are busier, you won't have the time you have now. This is special time... so make use of it.

Keep looking for a job, and keep trying to get into college, and keep praying. Keep doing all of those things you think you should do... but also think about what God would have you do with this special time. This time won't last forever. You may never have this much time again.

Isn't it difficult, when every where you turn you are stopped. We are living in a world that is against God, and it is only going to get worse. It is even in our churches.

I had one of those times. My daughter died, my husband died, I became bankrupt, I didn't have a home for my other children, I didn't have job skills to sell, it was awful. I accepted marriage with a terrible man as an escape. I didn't trust the Lord to see me through.

If our world obeyed God, the entire structure of it would be safe, but even the churches believe that obedience is not right. When we come to these times, we must simply and quietly watch for our opportunities, and live in the Lord's love. And not panic, but trust.
