WHAT'S NEXT?

| from Intern Megan... This past weekend, I traveled back to Michigan for my college graduation from Concordia University. I was happy to be able to attend multiple banquets and ceremonies to celebrate that hard work I have put in over the past four years. I even got to present a senior project I've been working on during my internship and brag a bit about this amazing congregation at Timothy. The weekend culminated in a baccalaureate service honoring the graduates and finally, the commencement ceremony. With a small class of only about 90 students, the ceremony was very quick compared to other Universities. Through all the festivities this week, I couldn't stop thinking of how faithful God has been to me during my college career. He provided me with the necessary scholarships and grants to be able to attend a private college. He blessed me with many opportunities to out-pour His love and be of service through my job as the team manager for the football team. He allowed me to praise Him with my voice as a member of multiple choirs. He also blessed me with wonderful professors who equipped me with the knowledge and skills I would need to serve God in my future vocation as a Family Life Minister. A common question that I repeatedly asked was, "What's next?" I would always reply that I had three more months of internship here in St. Louis, and I had no idea past that. I was usually met with questioning glances and worried looks, but I have no fears. I have comfort in the words of Psalm 139. God knows me, has created me wonderfully, and has ordained all of my days. None of us know what tomorrow may bring. I do not know where I will serve God next. But He does. And His ways are perfect. I pray that we will find peace in these words and promises from our Lord as we continue to live as followers of Christ, spreading His love in all that we do. --Megan Schultz |
