I have been thinking a lot lately about what I need to do with myself. That may sound strange, but maybe it is. I am wondering and praying about what I need to do in addition to what I'm doing now. Perhaps the last couple of weeks has smacked me right in the face reminding me that I feel I'm not doing enough and life is short. Although everyday I stare death in the face, it's not the face of someone that has been so close to me.

I pray you are doing well.

I know I should be content and I am in most ways. I just wonder if He has something more He wants me to be doing. Thanks for listening.

I'm sure I'm not doing anything meaningful (for His Kingdom) but I feel like I'm on a dead end street. Do you know what I mean?

Death of someone close always makes you think about what's real and important. That's not being discontent. That's being real.

Nana, I always find that its best to simply begin to do something. If you're headed the wrong way, you'll figure it out in short order.

I think these are good questions! Death has a way of making you rethink your priorities, doesn't it! I love how you are sensitive to this!

Pray that God will reveal it to you. That it would be so obvious, it smacks you in the face, knocks you over, etc.

And perhaps.... it could be... your everyday gifted self at your job is the very thing you were called to do in His plan. Remember Esther 4... "for such a time as this".

You're loved! Have a great day!

I know you'll figure out where you're suppose to be (or are you already there?). "Be still and know that I am God ..." (Psalm 46:10) He'll talk to ya. ♥ ∞

Sweet Trish, don't be too hard on yourself. God loves you just the way you are!

Been catching up with you and see that you have not had an easy time of things lately.

I think we all start to question when we face a close death. That's fine but it is not when we start to become condemned. I have always found that once we tell God then we leave it with Him otherwise we get into striving and self effort.
If God puts something on our heart then we will certainly know about it and He will give us the strenght to carry it out.
Gosh i did n ot mean for this to sound like a preach!
Blessings.
