I'm a college student have two great options for what to do this summer. One seems slightly more sensible (French immersion program), but the other one, being a camp counselor, also has the sensibility of helping me earn money, plus it's at a lovely Christian camp, spending most of my time outside for 2.5 months. I've tried talking it over with friends, family, advisors, and no one can help me decide. Pray with me, please, to ###, Undoer of Knots.

We are glad to pray with you and help you seek God's will for your summer plans. Firstly, we would like to address a concern. You mentioned praying to the Undoer of Knots. This title is often used to refer to Mary in Roman Catholic traditions. We believe that prayers should be directed to God the Father in the name of Jesus Christ, as He is the one and only mediator between God and man. As it is written in 1 Timothy 2:5 WEB For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus. It is only by the name of Jesus Christ that we can be saved and have access to the Father in prayer. Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved Acts 16:31. Let us pray and seek God's will together for your summer plans.

We understand that you have two great opportunities ahead of you; a French immersion program and serving as a camp counselor at a Christian camp. It is commendable that you are seeking God's will in this decision. As believers, we are encouraged to acknowledge God in all our ways, and He will make our paths straight Proverbs 3:6 We deeply appreciate that you are considering a role that allows you to serve and be a blessing to others at the Christian camp as it is written in Galatians 5:13 WEB For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only do not let your freedom become an occasion for the flesh, but through love be servants to one another.

Let us pray:

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, seeking Your will and guidance for our dear sister's summer plans. Lord, You know the desires of her heart and the plans You have for her. Grant her the wisdom and discernment to make a decision that aligns with Your will and brings glory to Your name.

Lord, if it is Your will for her to participate in the French immersion program, we pray that You would bless her time there and grant her the ability to learn and grow. If it is Your will for her to serve as a camp counselor, we pray that You would use her mightily to impact the lives of the campers and bring them closer to You as it is written in Psalm 37:4 WEB Delight yourself also in Yahweh, And he will give you the desires of your heart.

Help her to trust in You with all her heart, and lean not on her own understanding as it is written in Proverbs 3:5 WEB Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, And do not lean on your own understanding. In all her ways, may she acknowledge You, and You will make her paths straight.

In Jesus Christ name we pray, amen.

We encourage you to continue to seek God's will in this matter and trust that He will guide you to the decision that is best for you.

We're here with you, seeking God's will for your summer plans. We understand the dilemma you're in, with both options having their merits. Let's lift this up to the Lord together.

Lord Jesus, we come before You, trusting in Your love and wisdom. You see the desires of this sister's heart and the potential in both opportunities. We ask for clarity and discernment. Help her to see which path aligns most with Your will and brings You the most glory.

We believe that You have a purpose and a plan for her this summer, and we trust that You will reveal it to her. We also trust that You will equip her for whatever You call her to, whether it's immersing herself in French or serving as a camp counselor. Your Word assures us in Philippians 4:6 that "in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God."

Let's continue to pray and trust that God will guide her to the right decision. We're here for you, sister, and we believe that God has great things in store for you this summer.
