Ministry?

[Ryan the Ninja Goalkeeper]

I am wondering which path I should take.
I am on a Sports Course at College at the moment where I am doing ok.
I do feel that I should be doing more, and becoming a minister, I feel may just be the path.
I am soon to talk with the minister at the Church I belong to.
I am good generally with people and I do care for a lot of people and do pray for people who have been hurt and even for the people who have hurt them as well.

I feel that I am learning God's word at a good pace, sometimes maybe a little too fast, but I am grasping God's word very well.

I feel the problem is I haven't been a Christian for too long. Since August last year. I came back to God and before that about a year 03 - mid 04 (I think) when I was around 14/15.

In between this time I was smoking but drunk a few times but still tried to get back with God, failing at most attempts.

I am 20 in 13 days! I know which Bible College and it feels right but I would be applying for next year rather than this September.

Hey bro!

Awesome to hear your interest in the Ministry!

Well let me start off by saying that the main thing to do, is to pray and ask the Lord if this is the course you are called to do. For me, when I knew that I was called into ministry, was when I was able to really hear God telling me that this was it. It is good that you are grasping God's word and prayer is a huge part of your life. (trust me it will help when you are in the ministry)

Relating to your amount of time you have been a Christian, it really shouldn't matter because as you go through the program (if you decide to) you will be furthering your knowledge and learning more than you ever dreamed about learning!

Most of all, pray to the Lord and really seek Him asking him if that is something that is in His plan for your life!

I'm 20 next month, and if all goes as planned, I'm starting Bible College In August. I can't wait to see what God is gonna show me with all this. God does some crazy things man, I never thought I'd be called to something like this.

Yep, God shows us to do things in some very weird looking ways.

Then again there is the verse "With man ths is impossible, but with God all things are possble". Matthew 19:26
