I’m working in my life right now to slow down and pray and let God lead me! Which is really hard because often I think that I already have the answer and that I’ve got it all covered!! I’m trying to decide what I want to do for college i’m still a little way’s away but you can’t loose anything by praying. And at first i was thinking about what I wanted to do and just wasn’t really having any peace and then I realized maybe I should pray and let God lead me in the path I should go! Having patience is hard! And I have to pray that I will have patience till God answers me..

Hi,

I find this post on Acts very encouraging. Over the last couple of years, I’ve had a lot of closed doors - I wanted to become a primary school teacher but was rejected at interview 8 times.

After a lot of considered reflection, prayer and speaking to my pastor I feel that God has gifted me better to train to be a church minister, but there is a long process of selection and I often feel like I want others and God to “get on with it”. I definitely wanted an open window straight away. I’m coming to terms now with the fact that God has work for me with the youth group at the church I am at at the moment, and although I still need to be future focused and not get lazy about the process of preparing to go to theological college I should not treat the work God has for me at present to be second best.

hmmm…I thought that the ‘i’s would make italics–apparently not. Does anyone know how to make things in italics??

I love this from the post:
[i]“Furthermore, we learn God wants us to pursue every open door, confident that He will close them if they are not His will. As long as we are faithful to take advantage of what we have — our minds, God’s Word, the counsel of our parents, etc. — then we can move forward with full confidence that God will shut the door if we are not supposed to go through it.”[/i]
Thanks so much for this post! It encourages me to throw myself 100% into everything the Lord gives me to do–to actively pursue godly activities, being confident that God will shut that door if it’s not what He has for me. So I don’t need to worry about “oh, is this what God has for me?” because if it’s not, He will make that clear.
Thank you!!!

Alex and Brett:
Wow! This was great!! Thank you so much for writing and sharing this. It is such an encouragement and blessing. I’ve enjoyed the Rebelution so much and it has challenged me and encouraged me beyond words. I’ve shared this website with friends and siblings and am amazed at how God keeps speaking to my heart about things I had never even considered before. Thank you for remaining true to God’s leading and call in you lives, I know thousands of others can agree with me that it’s made a difference in our lives also. Don’t stop! Keep going!

This article helps me a lot. Sometimes I won’t make a decision because I’m afraid of having that door slammed in my face. This reminded me to not worry about that so much, keep moving forward, and continue trusting in God. Thank you!

Hey Alex and Brett! Yesterday i went to your conference and was SO encouraged and convicted of ways I could “do hard things”!! Thank you SO much!! I was just curious have you guys ever thought of starting a DO Hard Things Magazine? I’ve been thinking how cool it would be if you guys did. I am sure though that you guys are super busy and just got done writing and releasing a book and probably don’t have time to do this. I was thinking about that if you started a magazine then the kids that don’t have an internet would be able to receive it in the mail and it could be even more of an outreach. Also some some of us bloggers would be able to help with it all! Since it would be a ton of work. What do you think??
