COME ON!!! REALLY?? I DONT WANNA DO THAT

Like most people I had a million dreams as a child. First I wanted to be a doctor, then a teacher, then a lawyer and so on and so on. By the time I was ready to go to college I was clueless. I was young and dumb and I really didn't care about my major. All I wanted to do was party so I picked psychology and I must say I HATED IT so I switched to philosophy and I loved it because I love messing with the human brain but I couldn't focus so I dropped that and finally majored in English, ill tell you why. I took Speech like every freshman and my professor was moved by me, why I don't know but I had to create my own poem and when I say by the time I was finished everyone was just staring the professor said "Ms.Jackson whats your major?" I replied nothing because I don't know what I wanna do. He goes "well Ms. Jackson your new major is English." I looked at him like I was crazy I said English how is that gonna get me a Range Rover? He just laughed. I rocked out with English and loved it. After awhile I got bored and decided to focus on Nursing but something kept blocking it, I also considered Social Work but said who wants to be broke. I was accepted into the best programs and I knew I wanted my DNP but something always distracted me.  Plus if you know me I love the nice clothes and expensive bags but I couldn't focus on nursing.  Then God stepped in.  After moving to Texas I met a woman who was my neighbor, she would ask me to drive her to the store and little things like that.  One day she was telling me how stressed she was and the next thing I knew I was giving my testimony. When we finally got to her house I looked over to tell her bye and she was CRYING!!! I said what is wrong with you? She said you are my blessing, God sent you to me. All I could say was oh God is good and I pulled off. I was scared and I went home and prayed because something was wrong, I had never gave a testimony before and when i said I was scared, man listen I WAS SCARED. As time went on I found myself quoting the gospel and comforting folks who I never met. Then while at work one day looking at nursing programs something said no and I found myself looking at Social Work programs. THEN JOY HIT MY HEART AND I HAVEN'T LOOKED BACK SINCE. The point of this blog was to say if you keep hitting a brick wall in life maybe God has another plan for you. Pray on it, stay in his word because his word is true. You may not want to do what you're called to do but eventually God's plan will fall into place whether you like it or not. Be not discouraged for God has promised you a prosperous life all you have to do is trust him.

  1. Yes,indeed as children we all have dreamed of what we would like our life to be. Me as your mother have watched you grow into the woman that you are today. Life is full of negative people. Negative people makes negative situations. I can proudly say that besides God, you are the reason that I am the person that I am today. I am a much stronger person today because I've watched you handle things and situations that I could not had handled with someone to show me how...my someone is you. I thank God for blessing me with you because honestly without you where would I be?.
