17. A time, if any, when you’ve felt the spirit direct your life.
Oh goodness, I would have to say one of the biggest ones was when I switched my major. I got to a point in my Business degree where I just wasn't happy anymore, I hated it and I couldn't stand another moment as a Business major. Ok so maybe that's exaggerated a little but I really didn't like being a Business major anymore. It was too "worldly" and I just didn't want to be a part of it anymore. So I started praying and trying to figure out what the next stage of my life was going to be. I wanted to drop out of BYU-Idaho, return to Wisconsin and take some time to figure it all out. But my dad would have nothing of that. He wanted his little girl to get her college degree, whatever it was in. And he knew that if I left, I might not come back. So with that helpful encouragement, I took to praying my little heart out. Anybody who knows me, knows that I love helping people, doing service and that I am a fairly good listener. It was finally impressed into my heart that I needed to become a Social Work major. Registration had already been open for weeks but by pure heavenly intervention, I was able to add every single prerequisite that I needed, I was able to go in and switch my major to Sociology until I was admitted into the Social Work program and everything just fell into place. It was definitely divinely decided that this was what I was supposed to be doing. I also passed every single one of those prereq's though I struggled with Brother Hay's Intro tests and I struggled even more with Human Biology, which both required a lot of memorization that I froze up on come test day. And now I couldn't be more happy and I can definitely see that this is where the Lord wants me and what he wants me to do with my life. I have those skills and knowledge to help people in my career and/or in my personal life.
