Winter Is Not Forever

Though life seems to be moving others ahead, Josh appears to have come to a dead standstill. Should he continue his studies and become a pastor? Is he to help his aging grandpa and uncle on the farm? What does the future hold? Life was full of choices. The only problem was figuring out what to do! "What do you plan to do--after graduation? Are you gonna be a minister--or what?" Or what, my mind echoed in frustration. What? I had been asking myself the same question over and over. And I still didn't have an answer. Graduation was only a month away, and it seemed that I was the only one in our small town school who didn't know what to do with life after the big day. It wasn't that I hadn't given it a thought. In fact, I thought about it most of the time. I prayed about it too. But I still didn't have an answer except to say honestly, "No--I don't know yet." And I'd been saying that for a long, long time.
