b'What does Jesus want me to do with my life?\\nHave you ever asked that question? I know I have. There\\u2019s so much pressure to know what you\\u2019re going to do before you even leave home. And at the same time\\u2014both a blessing and a curse\\u2014there are so many options.\\nIt\\u2019s honestly anxiety-inducing. What if I make the wrong choice? What if I choose something outside of God\\u2019s will?\\nGood news: If you know Jesus, you\\u2019re already in God\\u2019s will. It\\u2019s not some nebulous, ethereal, fountain-of-youth thing. It\\u2019s living each moment of your life in light of what Jesus has done to free you from sin.\\nIt means devoting the little and big things in your life to serving Him. You find God\\u2019s will by understanding who He is. And that can be found in His Word, the Bible. If something isn\\u2019t sinful, you can do it in freedom\\u2014and to the glory of God. That\\u2019s the point, actually.\\nSo seek to honor God in all your choices\\u2014the big future ones and the little everyday ones. Study His Word, talk to Him about everything, and be in community with other Christians\\u2014in other words, get to know Jesus. The more you know Him, the more you\\u2019ll know His peace. Some days will have you feeling more anxious than others, but He\\u2019ll be with you every step of the way.\\xa0\\n\\u2022 If you know Jesus, how does knowing you\\u2019re already in God\\u2019s will change your perspective about the future?\\n\\u2022 What are some big decisions you are facing right now? Small ones? How does your faith in Christ affect those decisions?\\n\\u2022 What are your favorite Scripture passages to read when you are anxious about upcoming decisions?\\n\\u2022 What people in your life can give you Christ-centered wisdom about hard decisions?\\nFor this is the will of my Father: that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him will have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.
