Sometimes He graciously does, and it is so exciting to see Him working in our lives. Other times, we seem to be in a dark cave, groping around to find our way. God will, however, light our way, even if He chooses to light only our next step as we travel on. Get the very best education that you can. Understanding the way things work and the way society thinks can be invaluable to you in whatever you choose to do in life.
Discernment is essential.
Don't be troubled when you make some mistakes. You will make some BIG ones, we all do. Our Lord forgives us, and we need to learn to forgive ourselves as well. By all means, learn from your mistakes, but don't be overcome by them. The older you get the more you will see your need for a Savior.
