When looking at what you plan to do with your life, you get excited and passionate about that one thing that you want to do for the rest of your life. You spend most of your life going to school and preparing yourself for the job that you will have, probably for the rest of your life. Many Christians look at there job and think about how they are doing this job for our God. Through my vocation I see “The Image of God” and “the fall” through the hard times and balancing my faith and science.
