What is our Destiny?

Throughout our lives we are encouraged to reach our destiny, but what really is our destiny? What do we have to do in order to reach our destiny? What happens if we slip once or miss just one opportunity? Are we still capable of reaching our potential? As our lives get more complicated, we find ourselves wondering what is the correct choice. As summer approaches, I find myself wondering what choices I should take in order to accomplish my potential. Should I go to school and further my education, should I apply for internships and get work experience at home, or work at school where I can be with my friends, or even travel the world? What will be most beneficial to my future. If I travel the East, will I postpone my graduation, will I miss the chance to meet my future wife, or will I open new doors to opportunities in the future? As I ponder these decisions and weigh the possible outcomes, I am comforted by a quote:

"I will always be a disciple of Christ, it is not what I do, it is a part of me."

As I am force to make these decisions I remember that it is in the Savior that I must put my confidence. I need not stress about the possible outcomes but strive to be the best in every aspect of life. I remind myself that there is a greater power at the helm, one with an invested interest in my future.
