a matter of balance

how exactly am i supposed to find the balance between trusting god to provide for me and trying to be responsible in "determining my own fate?" honestly, i think i have a responsibility to lean towards my own strength right? considering that i have a significant amount of debt from student loans, is a ministry position even something that i should consider? i believe that it is. i don't know how things will work out, but that's not for me to determine. i am called to be faithful with what i do have control over. so, i will continue to press on towards a ministry, serving god and allowing him to work through me in order to impact a generation of young people in a culture that is very foreign to me. i have confidence that my future will line up, one step at a time, because god is my refuge.

for the foolishness of god is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of god is stronger than man's strength. 1 corinthians 1.25
