Change is inevitable.
Everyday we see the natural world around us change. Rain falls. Leaves turn from green to red. The sun rises and sets. Even within our own bodies change is occurring – we have new blood cells produced everyday and new hairs which grow each day. But most importantly, everyday we are changing mentally and spiritually.
Through the books we read, the TV shows we watch, the people we encounter, we change our world view and our view of God. If we are tuning ourselves to God’s will we will be changing to be more in-line with God, but if we are tuning ourselves to the world we will find we have little use for God.
We are always changing – the world is always changing – which makes it difficult to keep up or catch up. If we try and align ourselves with the ever changing world, we will find that our target is always moving and we will always fall short.
The world may always be changing – but God never does. God is the same today as He was yesterday, and as He will be tomorrow. The more we study Him and the more we align our lives with His purpose, we will find more of Him revealed to us.
Change is going to happen – but you have the power to decide if you are going to change on the whims and the twists of a confusing world or if you are going to allow yourself to be changed by being transformed by the truth of the ever present Lord.
