Vocation

So, I've been puzzling lately (and by latley I mean the last 5 months) over what to do when I get big. I've been a passionate musician for quite a large part of my life, but I've also got an interest in theology. So I've been toying with the prospect of attending seminary in St. Louis beginning next fall.

Now, I understand Luther's doctrine of vocation, but the struggle still remains. Do I pursue my passion in music and supply the lambs of Christ with the gospel through my lyrics? Or do I puruse the position of shepherd and care for the tender children of God that way? It's puzzling me more than I expected it would.

Regardless of my choice, God goes with me, along with the power of the Holy Spirit. Thanks be to God that he can use me in spite of me. Now that's grace.
