Change is all around and I don’t know what to do? Change has been the very thing that has been the theme my life this last year. Change is hard, change is new but I HATE CHANGE! So much change my head cannot wrap around what is going on. So much change I want to give up. Change makes you run to the old and forget the new. Change brings up wounds that you never knew. Change makes you think that much harder at life. Change is emotional. Change is resistance. Changes is always happening. How do I deal with change? The old will never be once more, he is dead. Change will not be the death of me but the very thing that drives me to pursue life that much harder. Change will challenge me to think differently and man up. Change will define new life experiences and expose new and uncharted paths. Change will thrust me into the wild. Change is my reality and change is me.
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here” This is the change that is meant to be!
Matt,
Great words and great reflection. Often times that which is most difficult for us is what is best…
“Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.”
Hebrews 10:35-36
I am proud of you and the changes you’ve faced this past year. We really do miss you and hope it isn’t too long before we get to spend time with you again!
Love you dear brother,
Lindz
