Before I formed you in the womb I knew you.
—Jeremiah 1:5
Aptitude Tests and Career Coaches identify personality traits, skills, and interests, from which they suggest vocational fits.
But this is clear: you can’t advance while looking back or standing still. If you want to succeed, you must move forward. (Ever wonder why your windshield is bigger than your rearview mirror?)
Mentally living in the past disrupts the future.
God knows more about you than you know about yourself. He is the ultimate Career Coach because he placed you here with a skill set and a purpose. Before you entered the scene, he knew you and the position he crafted you to fill.
Listen to him: “Do not cling to events of the past or dwell on what happened long ago. Watch for the new thing I am going to do” (Isa 43:18–19 TEV).
Listen to the Coach.
