New World Son- There is A Way

"But if love became a man, if the word had flesh and bone.
Would you recognize His face, if He came to bring you home.
You think you're all alone, gotta do it on your own riding solo.
Is there someone you can call, when you stumble and fall?
Cause you don't know, if you'll be getting up again."

[Great Survey] Thanks for tagging me Laura!


I will tag a few people in a second!

college

I want to go to school to become a certified nurse midwife. I am not altogether sure that this is
"By 2015, all new advanced practice nurses will need to have a DNP for certification. Those of us in practice before that date will not be required to get the degree; we will be grandfathered in."

I thought midwifery would be really great field but their aren't any specialty schools near my home. I would have to get my BSN, then my MSN (in another state) and now a DNP. It is overwhelming to think about especially since I only wanted a 4 year degree. I really thought that I could bless God's kingdom with a nursing and midwifery degree especially on mission trips. I want to get a degree that I can use to bless my family and God's kingdom so I am thinking of hospitality, Spanish, education, L&D nurse (instead of midwife), and dietitian amongst many other options. In Philippians 4:6 we are commanded, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” I am really trying to work on this. I know God& the Word will help me to discern which path to take. I can be such a worry-wart but I know that the more I mature into my faith I will cast my cares upon HIM increasingly.

godly friendships

"The righteous should choose his friends carefully, For the way of the wicked leads them astray." Proverbs 12:26

"He who walks with wise men will be wise, But the companion of fools will be destroyed." Proverbs 13:20

"Do not be deceived: 'Evil company corrupts good habits.' Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame." 1 Corinthians 15:33-34

I have recently learned that friendship and fellowship with other Christians is very important. Many of my friends at school are not Christians and this creates a big problem. I am by no means perfect but these friendships are not positive and only drag me down and tempt me. They say nasty things to me at times and contibute to my desire to gossip. They curse, get drunk and go out to clubs. The more I hear about these things the more they seem appealing but the Bible says "Do not give the devil a foothold." (Eph 4:27) The Bible also says "Do not be yoked together with unbelievers.. (2 Cor 6:14) Alas, I am nearing the end of my senior year so I almost feel like it is too late. How can I find new friends right before I graduate? I think the best solution for me is to hang out with my friends in the youth group more. I want to surround myself with my Christian friends. They help me to stay focused on God and our conversations are more constructive. We are all part of the same body and have the same morals and ideals. As humans we sometimes tend to follow a herd mentality-which is that we base our decisions off of the actions of others. Researchers determined that it only takes a minority of just five per cent to influence a crowd’s direction – and that the other 95 per cent follow blindly.* Which way do you want to be led? Towards Christ or away from Him?

"For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leadeth unto life, and few are they that find it" (Matt 7:14)

“...for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.” (Luke 13:24)
