More thoughts on the future

As you might have read I am trying to find my way right now. Trying to figure out what it exactly is that God wants for my life. There are just so many options that are possibilities. How can we know exactly what God wants for us. I guess the only thing to do is to pray, wait and see what God has in store. I am learning ever so slowly that I just need to wait for Gods provision and guidence. That doesn't mean that I won't be looking into certain things, But I will definitly need to lean on God for my whole strength in everything.

Last night I was laying in ben and it was as if God puts these dreams in my head. I know that I do not have a natural desire to go to australia, sure it would be fun. Its just not something I would ever dream of. I feel utterly scared for the soul reasons that It is halfway around the world, I know barely anyone (except my one aunt and cousin which I have met once) and it would be totally different from everything I have ever experienced. God keeps giving me these dreams for hillsongs college. I know that things would be much different from everything I do. I will admit it, I am a supper lazy guy. I come home, say hi to my parents, and then go downstairs and check my e-mail. I don't do much, And I know if I ever went there, there would need to be a change. Hillsongs has one of the most involved courses I have ever seen. It is unreal, you have to be involved in multipul courses, multipul stream ministries (depending on what stream you have chosen. For me that would be worship and creative arts), over all I would have a couple nights to myself. Thats a huge change from what life is like now. Maybe thats it, Maybe I need that change for God to really use me. Maybe he needs me out of my comfort zone.

Life after college. Is that something I really want? To be a worship pastor, or something similar? I could definitly see it. I never ever thought of myself as the minitsrty type person, but more and more it seems like a viable option. Its definitly not something I am afraid of.

Anyways I have basically skipped all of class. Just to blog. I guess you could say that my mind is in another place right now. I hope that all of your days have been good. Pray for me if you have the time. I think I really need Gods provision with my future and such.

thanks so much,
zachary michael

God has also givin me a passion to travel to australia. But for a diffrent course. im doing a DTS with YWAM. And I can relate. It is scary to think how involved your gonna be, nevermind that you are on the other side of the world.
But really. If hes givin you the passion to go. And its something you can see yourself doing. Im sure itll work out fine, Hes not gonna give you a passion and an oppertunity to go somewhere and let you down so you just hate every minute of it. Sure itll be a change forsure. A good change. A stretching relationship building change perhaps.
Just trust Him I guess.
Ill pray for you if you want
