If you asked me a year ago where I would be in five years, I would have said that I would be an RM who was married to some wonderful guy that I met at BYUI while getting my degree in accounting. Now, if you ask me where I'll be in five years, I can honestly say I don't know. I have no clue. I don't think I'll be an RM. Maybe I'll be married? I probably will have a degree in something from somewhere.
I know that no matter where I am in five years, that as long as I'm doing what Heavenly Father wants for me, I'll be fine. He knows what's best for you! So if that means not going on a mission, then don't go. You gotta exercise your faith in the Man upstairs. He knows how everything will play out. I have gotten into the habit of asking Heavenly Father for His opinion on what I should do when it comes to life changing decisions. If I don't receive an answer, I go ahead in proceeding with what feels right. If it brings you closer to God, it cannot be bad.
Now there will be some decisions He'll leave up to you to make. Congrats He trusts you! I think it's both an honor and an annoyance. An honor because Heavenly Father trusts me to make a good decision and an annoyance because I always am afraid I'll make the wrong choice. You may feel how I'm feeling. You may yet to feel how I'm feeling. Either way, you have to have confidence in yourself. And if it's not right, Heavenly Father will always help you out.
"Be strong and of good courage; be not dismayed for the Lord thy God will help thee withersoever thou goest." Joshua 1:9
