Changes are constant

I continue to be amazed at how God works in the lives of His crowning creation. Through the process of constant change He finds ways to make us better than ever before...continuing that miraculous evolution of the human.
I have found myself in the position of returning to a previous ministry. Actually, I wasn't gone for even a year when it became obvious that I had made a serious error in my decision to move away. I can't begin to describe the process as it took place in my head and heart...I can only tell you that the Spirit was working overtime on me.
All of that brings to my mind the fact that change is an inevitable part of our existence. If we were to settle in and allow status quo to rule we'd stop growing...stop having the experiences that make us better. Instead, from the moment of conception until we die we continue to change and be changed.
While many changes aren't particularly enjoyable to experience I can say with great assurance that the most recent change in my life is paying big dividends in terms of my mental and emotional health. I can rest better at night knowing that I'm working to right some wrongs and rekindle some valuable relationships.
Admit it or not...changes are constant, necessary and most often, for our own good!
