What really resonates with me from this article is the idea of aligning career choices with a deeper sense of purpose rather than just chasing after money or status. It’s so easy to get caught up in the idea that success means having a high salary or a prestigious job title. But Jesus’ life shows that true fulfillment comes from pursuing something greater—helping others and living out our values. This makes me reconsider how I choose my future career. Instead of focusing solely on what job pays the best or sounds the most impressive, I want to think about how my work can make a real difference and reflect what I believe is truly important.

Another key point that stood out is the importance of seeking guidance through prayer or reflection when making big decisions. Sometimes, the pressure to make the right choice can feel overwhelming. But if Jesus took time to pray and seek direction, then it’s okay for me to step back and think about what’s genuinely right for me. Overall, the article encourages me to balance ambition with staying true to my values and to focus on making a positive impact, rather than just getting caught up in the rush of busyness or societal expectations.
