What Proverbs taught me about my career
When I was in college, I had no idea what I wanted to do for a career. I was an English major and loved poetry, but I wondered if this could translate in any practical way to the “real world.”
Fortunately, having grown up attending a Christian Science Sunday School, I knew to turn to my Father-Mother God for guidance. I felt comfortable doing this, knowing that God is the one Mind that directs and governs us all, and that we are the expression of this Mind.
In high school, I had begun to live closely with these verses from Proverbs, which I applied to everything from relationships to summer jobs: “Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths” (3:5, 6).
