Change is Good

It's happened to us all. Just when we think we got it all under control, bam! something rocks our world. Our lives are constantly changing whether we want it to or not, and sometimes those changes are unexpected. Situations we intentionally change can be exciting while those that surprise us can throw us off our game. It is in the times of the unexpected that we have to remember that we are not in control and that there is a bigger plan for our lives.

Change is good.
    It helps us to see things with new perspectives.
    It causes us to grow personally, spiritually and emotionally.
    It forces us to find our boundaries.
    It defines our values and beliefs, making us stronger.
    It challenges our relationships and attitudes.
    It brings newness to the mundane.
    It holds us accountable to what we believe about the situation we are in.
    It creates new perspectives, new boundaries, new beliefs, new relationships.

Although, change can be uncomfortable and even scary at times, new chapters in our lives make us stronger as people and remind us that nothing is permanent in this world. God has a plan for us all and when situations change, it is another reminder that we are not in charge, no matter how much we try.

Deuteronomy 4:39
Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other.
