Proverbs 16:1

"We can make our own plans,
      but the Lord gives the right answer."
             Proverbs 16:1 NLT

Plans.  I make so many of them.  This past summer I started this checklist of things I wanted to do this year for Christ. I was so unsure back then, and I was praying for guidance on what to do and what not to do.  It's crazy how everything has worked out since then, how God answered.  My Original List was something like this:

AP Spanish Language
AP Art???
Writing?
Love Bags/Golden Acres
Wednesday Night
Edifice
Which College?
Astronomy Club
Piano
Mission trip- Mexico, Romania, Hungary?

Then God began to open & close doors.

They aren't offering AP Spanish Language this year.
AP Spanish Language
I can use my Greece pictures for my AP Art Concentration. And I'm nominated for AP Art in Silver Knights.  I can use that to point to Christ.
AP Art :)
Silver Knights :)
Journalism is during my AP Lit. block and I can't get into the class.  The Freelance meeting is when I am out of town. 
Writing
I mentioned my love for writing to my art teacher and through word of mouth the journalism teacher found out and now I am freelancing.
Writing- freelance :)
Love Bags is inconveniently on Saturday mornings but I love it!  I can go whenever I have breaks and now for NHS my friends and I for a project are going to collect items to give away at Love Bags.  Golden Acres was put on hold for a while when I was sick with Pneumonia, but now I can go more on a weekly basis and am starting to build relationships with the children there.
Love Bags as much as I can :)  Golden Acres :)
Wednesday Night I still get to lead small group often and really enjoy it!  It was hard over the summer when I had to work Wednesdays, but I made it work.
Wednesday Night :)
About Edifice, God has shown me that the need is not the calling.  Basically, as much as I see the need in Edifice and completely support their cause, I can't do everything.  I will try to contribute as much as I can as my sister and friends are involved there, but I can't overcommit.
Edifice
For College, I realized the other night how much I truly want to go to the college I just applied to and how much I really desire to get in. I feel as I've been drawing close to God, I really can't see myself not doing something Christian ministry related.  I also feel more and more that this college is a perfect match if I get in.  If. If. If...
College- God's choice :)
I love looking at the stars; the truly declare God's glory.  However, astronomy club at school was cancelled... I guess I'm just going to have to star gaze by myself.
Astronomy Club
I started playing piano when I was in second grade, but lately I just don't have the time to commit.  Plus, I don't feel a strong calling to use piano as a ministry as of now.
Piano
I can't go back to Mexico, God closed that door quickly.  However, my prayers are with the Juniors about to go and if another opportunity opens up for me to go back again in the spring, I would love to go again.  I prayed and seriously considered the Hungary trip but God showed me that it wasn't exactly what He's calling me to.  I still am praying about Romania, but now I'm starting to think I shouldn't limit God on locations, because He may call me somewhere besides these three places.
Mexico (for now)
Hungary
Romania?
Maybe somewhere else :)

It's so much better trusting in God, who sees the whole big picture.  I have Someone to rely on when making these decisions.  I am not alone.  He has guided me in the past so He will do the same today and in the future too.
