Paradox Point

So, What’s Next?

Over the past couple of days, much of my time has been spent filling out applications and researching different opportunities for work/internships.  Not uncommon activity for a recent college graduate.

I’ve been in contact with Daytrotter, WEXP/AIR, Family Life Today, RHYTHMinTWENTY, and Rumba/Revolution.  I’m excited about all of those prospects.  But I honestly have no idea which one will end up happening, or really, if ANY of them will.

But I’m at peace with that.  The thing that I started to worry about yesterday was this: what if, for example, I get the internship with Daytrotter, and I start there in early July, and then I hear back from WEXP/AIR and they want me there in September?  My internship with Daytrotter would run through January.  So maybe, I could convince them to let me come in the winter/spring instead?

Or what about this: I get the internship at Family Life, and start there in June.  They want me to stay until August.  I start there, and Daytrotter calls, saying they want me no later than July 15^th.  But I’ve already made the commitment to stay at FLT until August!

Then I remembered what we talked about at Redeemer yesterday.  I have no reason to worry.  I have no reason to be anxious.  I have no idea what the next year of my life will look like, but God knows exactly how it’s gonna end up.  And if I’m doing my best to honor His will, things are gonna be fine.  I’ll get rejected where I need to be rejected and accepted where I need to be accepted.  I’m doing my part, in applying for several different positions, and He’ll do His part in guaranteeing that everything works out exactly how it should.

You see how easy that makes things?  I pursue the areas where I feel like He’s gifted me, and He paves the road for me to walk on.  Right on.

So, for those of you’ve who’ve been wondering what’s next for me, this is all I can offer you – I have no idea, but God has it worked out.
