God always takes care of us and you have to remember that you're just getting started. It takes years to get established after college and in my opinion, you're way ahead of the game compared to most recent grads! Every month when I write my rent check, it's painful. I look at all my friends who have husbands to help foot the bill and wonder why I'm not one of them. But the truth is, there's a lot to be said about making it on your own.

It amazes me even more to see just how masterful he is , even in the small things , like coming across your blog today. I follow the inspired room a lot . I love her design approach and share a similar taste . I remembered a while back when she said you were joining her blog and even thinking...wow ! it must be nice to be surrounded by so much creative influence after graduating. It's funny but at that moment I just knew you were off to a good start. I've always had it in my heart to start blogging , even to explore an education in design but have been fearful . I have a lot on my plate, I manage a practice, just bought a home that between remodeling and designing hasn't neecesarily gone my way , I'm a<br />leader for my ministries youth group and just always seem to have something going on in my life. In this season , my life feels a little shaken by the storm and I can't express enough the magnitude of my awe to how come across this post.Just like it reads in John 14-God, brings peace to the hearts of those who trust him .Todays is my first time visiting you blog and God used you to speak to my heart. I just thought you should know and I really wanted to say "Thank you" for being an instrument of the Lord.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817707935402441332.post-7087714224040202602013-08-31T15:25:17.878-04:002013-08-31T15:25:17.878-04:00Or maybe he's just telling you to move to Loui...Or maybe he's just telling you to move to Louisiana.

It makes sense that we feel this way right after graduating college, but we cannot help but begin to over-think and worry so much about the future. But, I love that you mentioned that these doubts and fears are lies, and that God's timing is the ultimate truth. Thank you for this beautiful reminder to surrender our worries and concerns to the Lord, because God is so so so good. <br /><br />Blessings as you continue to explore your near-future life!

I ended up working $10/hr as a medical front office assistant after I graduated, which didn't even require a high school diploma (making me even more depressed after 4 painful years of undergrad!). Even though it was "close" to my field of interest (medicine), I wasn't doing any actual patient care and I felt SOOOO BORED! I took night classes while I worked full-time to keep myself intellectually challenged, and I got a phlebotomy certificate (again, no college was necessary for this training, so I was surrounded by people with very little motivation). I am going to be applying to medical school next year, but the soonest I'll be able to matriculate in 2015...life just seems like a waiting game at the moment but I hope it gets better for the both of us! Even though I'm not too spiritual, I admire your reliance on God.Sonja Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06739157384318132687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817707935402441332.post-82603349076427010972013-08-29T20:55:40.762-04:002013-08-29T20:55:40.762-04:00I remember feeling the exact same way after gradua...I remember feeling the exact same way after graduation, and even now, I still feel that way sometimes.

As a USMC wife, mother, and classical musician with a M.M.E., every three years we get up rooted and I feel like I have to start over with my career. This most recent move has allowed me to spend more time with one of my greatest passions, interior design and blogging. But I often wonder what God has in store for me with the talents he has given me. Thanks for sharing your inspiration.

I have no clue what I’m doing after graduation, and I have no clue how to figure it out. I am so excited to be done school but I am also paralyzed by the unknown. You are right in that we just have to trust and have faith during this period... but it sure is HARD.

In fact, everything I thought I had I didn't have, and even some of the things I did have (like my health) were taken from me for a little while. It was extremely tough, but somehow God has opened doors and here I am in grad school, doing what I love, and although I still have so many many unanswered questions and sometimes doubt, I have to trust that His plan is better than my plans. It was a good reminder to read your post today too as it has been a pretty awful day. Got into a minor fender bender on the way home from a day starting at 4AM, and let's just say I had had it. Thanks for the reminder that God is still faithful, even in the midst of what seems like a big 'ol thunderstorm. xoxo girly. praying for you.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18037671524392732102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817707935402441332.post-51273488436414583562013-08-29T17:38:59.090-04:002013-08-29T17:38:59.090-04:00this was a very appropriate post for me to read to...this was a very appropriate post for me to read today. my husband will graduate in december & things are quite "up in the air" regarding his job situation. this is scary because he is the one who mainly supports us. after i graduated college, there was about 6 months where i put out tons of resumes & got nothing back. eventually, things did begin to turn around & i started getting some offers. i'm sure with your experience & the blog and your soon to be business, opportunities will come along in time!Marissa@ohhhsolovelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01342714562614735393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817707935402441332.post-61314235528529616792013-08-29T17:18:00.001-04:002013-08-29T17:18:00.001-04:00Michaela..needed to hear this today.
