Good Morning!!
Lately, I have been having what I like to call a "mid 20's crisis." I am 23, married, with a great job, a loving husband, and we are both healthy, so I should not be complaining right? RIGHT! However, I am at a point where I can not continue my college shenanigans anymore. But, I am not in that young married couples that have a house and are pregnant, nor are we trying category. So that brings me to my "mid 20's crisis," what am I supposed to be doing?
I know this way of thinking is a primarily a southern way of thinking. Being raised in the south you are taught once you graduate from high school, you go to college, find your husband, graduate, get married, and pop out kids like a pez dispenser. I am fortunate to have found my prince charming! And we have chosen to wait until Justin is finished with Medical School before we start trying to have a family. So I should be relaxing and enjoying this part of my life, I know. But part of me feels like I am not doing what I am supposed to do. Is there anyone else that feels this way? This thought process is partly one of the reasons I decided to blog!
Instead of trying to rush everything and do what is expected. I am trusting in God, and his plan. It is my prayer that his will be done daily. I have not always been strong in my faith but I have my husband to thank for that. He is the one who has brought me closer to God. We are striving to make God the center of our marriage because we believe that a love affair with Jesus makes for a lasting and STRONG marriage! Rather than sitting around thinking about what comes next in this phase of my life I am going to take it day by day and put all of my faith in the Lord. I will continue to strive to be a better christian and wife. Hopefully, this "mid-20's crisis" will become known as the time when I really began to know Christ and change my life for the better!

ReplyDeleteOf course I have thought this since you and I share the common trait of being PLANNERS and wanting to have little ones! I have to stop planning my life from time to time & remember that God's plans are way better than I could ever imagine. I know you are so proud of your hubby, too! Proverbs 3:5-6
