Leaning on God in Every Situation

Today is a new day, a new start to what God has in store for me. The past year and a half has been wonderful and truly a gift from God. I find myself with more confidence and more focus on who I am and who I want to become. At times, I feel as if why am I in school? What's the point of this? Honestly, at times I am right...at times higher education is so overrated. But then I think about it and to be honest, I think it's the experience of living on your own and getting out there is the part that I am learning the most from. Now don't get me wrong, I am learning a fair amount in the classroom (Don't worry Mom and Dad, your dollars aren't at waste). I just feel like sometimes, I wish I would have taken a year off before I went to college and traveled the world, doing volunteer work and making a difference. I guess there is time for everything, but that's thing we take time for granted. Time is a gift from God. I guess right now what I need to do is fully lean on Him in order to figure out things. I know an idea of what I want to do with my life, but the whole thing is how to get to that point. I guess I will figure it out one way or another, but for right now the only thing to remember is God is good and He will help direct me in the right direction.
