The Big Questions for High Schoolersಮಾದರಿ

Are you: (A) a super detailed person, or (B) a go with the flow person, or (C) something in between the two? Either way, we all have hopes and plans for the future. Whether it’s what job we want in the future or just what we want to eat for lunch, we’re constantly making plans. The problem is that our plans sometimes don’t work out, or we feel stuck when making a big decision. It can feel like the weight of the world is on your shoulders to figure out the rest of your life. Here’s the good news: when we put God first and commit to following God, we start to want our plans to align with God’s plans. Our plans start to go from very specific to very purpose-seeking—from “making the team this spring” to “being a light in any community and social situation I’m a part of whether I get on the team or not.” That means that our future is in God’s hands, which honestly is so much better than our own!

The next time you are facing a decision big or small, commit it to God through prayer, and ask God to guide you into wise actions.
