Weekly Devotion Time

Change

A statement was made in tonight's Sunday sermon that made me think, "Our success depends on how we respond to change."

Boy did that hit me. I can truthfully say that I do not do well with change. But after he said that it has made me take a deeper look into my life.

There have been so many times in the past and even recently that change was brought to me and I did not respond to it well.

I think back at a situation wondering could it have turned out for my good? what if I just had patience and excepted the change? Could I have been effective in my life with victory if I embraced change?

There is going to be change everyday in my/our life. So embrace it, use it, don't let it take a hold of you and bring you down.

I know that after tonight I am going to try hard at not looking at change as something bad but look at it as a new opportunity that God has given me to better myself as a person and as a Christian. Just think if it was not for me asking Jesus into my heart and him CHANGING my life. Where would I be today?

Lord, I just want to thank you for changing my heart. For if it had not been for you not changing your mind and dying on the cross for me, I would not be where I am today. Thank You for helping me see that even if the change may hurt that it's good. Help me to be patient and embrace the changes that lay ahead of me in life. To know that no matter what happens, You never will change. When I need you, you are there, being the same you have always been. amen
