His Plan not Mine

Learning to listen is the hardest part.
Last weekend, I was struggling with questions like, "God, What do I do with my life? Are you even listening to my prayers? Hello, Do something please?!"
I am still undeclared as my major, and I feel so lost at what to do with my life.
For 3 weeks now I have been praying constantly to God, telling Him I want to do what HE wants me to do. For Him to show me what to do with my life, but no answer.
I became impatient.
I got to the point to where all I could do was cry and cry. I wanted to know so badly.
Should I be a nurse, youth pastor, teacher, counselor..I don't know!
Right after I had my crying session in my bed for 10 minutes, I got a text from my lovely mother. It said, "Lindsay, I know you're struggling with what to do with your life, but remember reading God's Word is the best way to hear from Him."
WHAT?!
I had forgotten that God speaks to us through His Scripture!
For weeks on end I had been praying. praying. praying. AND don't get me wrong. Praying is a very good thing, and He is listening, but you also have to be in the Word.
This week let's focus on DIGGING DEEPER in His Amazing Word.
Be open to what He has to say to you in His Word.
SEEK HIM WITH EVERYTHING YOU HAVE!! Now legggggo!
