In September I will be attending my 1st year of University.
I will be taking the Bsc.
These days im getting confused and worried that im not following Gods will in my life for what job career
For the past 3 or 4 years ive seen many amazing things in my life on what I thought Gods will might have been in my life.
I want to study the brain and I found seeing ppl that have altzhimers and paralysis , epeleptic ppl...there r other reasons but these r just some of the things which have REALLY interested me.....ive never really found anything as interesting as this in my life so I thought this was what God was calling me to do....neuroscience.(The brain)
But all during high school...especially during Gr 12...I found doing the sciences hard. I know its supposed to be hard but its just....its hard for me to understand and memorize stuff,.....mainly bio and some physics
But at the same time I would LOVE to study the brain
And as we all know University is a lot harder than high school
I dunno if this is a time where I just have to trust God and have faith but....i dunno
Any advice would be great :D
Thank you!
God Bless

There are three actions you can take.First,you can just keep praying a general prayer that God show you what His will for your life is.Second you should definitely take an interest and appitude test that will give you specific occupations that you are cut out for.The third action will take a great deal of faith but you should take it if you feel that you are in the wrong course of study in school.Ok,here's what just happened;sometimes the Holy Spirit gives me words to give to people and the Holy Spirit told me that you are to use this third technique which means you are planning for the wrong career.This isn't going to be easy.But God will tell you exactly what career to prepare yourself for.The Holy Spirit is excited about this! It is going to be an tremendous miracle when it happens.But you really have to prepare yourself for this by drawing extremely close to Jesus .Daily prayer,Bible study and listening to only Christian music and radio programs will work.Ok then when you've become much more spiritual,here's what you do:ask God to tell you specifically what he wants you to do with your life to remain in His will ON A SPECIFIC DATE which you will select.God will give you your answer on the date you select if you keep asking Him to do so and if you believe with your whole being that He will.Pick a date SEVERAL MONTHS in the future (IMPORTANT) on a day you'll know you'll have alot of free time.This is not a prayer technique,it's a way to build up your faith and receive an answer that you will be certain will be from God although IT WILL BE SPOKEN TO YOU BY A HUMAN.This not just an idea to try.The Holy Spirit is really excited about getting God to contact you personally.Don't blow this opportunity of a lifetime!

Hello,
After I got out of the Marine Corps. I had already been called by God to do a special thing with my life. However, I was very nervous when it came time to face down the first big challenge, which was starting school. I did not do very well in high school and I thought college would work out in the same way. But I had faith that if God wanted me to do this thing that he would change me in order to facilitate its completion. I have been in school now for about one year and I can tell you that it has been very challenging but not even anywhere close to being difficult. The point of this is that if you truly feel deep down in your heart that this is a mission that you are being sent on by your Father, then know, in your heart, that as long as you keep the faith, absolutely nothing will keep you from completing it--except yourself.

You make a plan and God will direct your steps. Don't worry how He is able to do this. He can. What will He has revealed to you in pleasing Him, do that which you already know. He will reveal, as you go along the way in faith, what is needed by you as obedience to His will for your life.

Pr 16:9 ¶ The human mind plans the way, but the LORD directs the steps.

Hi Jun ,

If studying " the brain " in a formal setting is causing doubts .

Study it in a non-formal setting .

Then , if you are led , study it in a formal one , as well .

When we love somethng , it's easy to remember the details .

For we treasure them in our " heart " , and they frequently stir our mind , and are often revisited in our recollections .

Start studying now , if you haven't already , and your apprehension of entering a " school of study " , will be eased .

The heart of the wise teacheth his mouth, and addeth learning to his lips. <-----> Proverbs 16:23

Peace ,

wm

Study hard before going into college, get as many books as you can and start studying before you get into college, study before doing anything else when you get into college, and make it what you do most...of course though...don't do it before spending time with God...if you spend time with God before you spend time on your studies, you will be blessed and find it easier to focus and learn the material. Do this daily, study and pray constantly...be with God during your studies and you will learn more. If you see this as a passion, go for it, God will bless your hard work...strive for the prize of healing people dear brother.
