For Important Decisions

I have some pretty important decisions that are going to have to be made. I still have not found a job after having to leave my previous job at the daycare after 2 weeks due to stress/anxiety. I'm almost certain that my problems were due to hypothyroidism because I was experiencing extreme fatigue. Now that I'm on thyroid medication, I'm hoping to be able to last a lot longer at a job once the medication kicks in. I was told it should take at least 2 weeks or more for optimum levels.

I've been having a lot of trouble lately deciding on what to do for the fall. On one hand, I would really like to continue my college education, but on the other, I would really like to do some volunteer service if I can't find a regular job. Next month, a volunteer program related to AmeriCorps is going to be taking applications for the 2012-2013 year of service. I am trying to work up the courage to ask my pastor if he can supply a reference for me because I only need one more. The great thing is, this volunteer program is located in my hometown, so I can still live at home and not have to worry about moving to an unknown location.

The other alternative is applying for the university I'm interested in or a community college program to get more education related to the career I want. I am still interested in religious life, so I'm worried about accruing debt. I'm leaning toward the community college program right now because I'm already accepted into the school and I have a better chance of getting financial aid.

Please pray that I can figure out what I want to do before June starts. The deadline for university admissions is the end of this month, so I need to make it fast.
