CHANGE

ROME WASNT BUILT IN A DAY.  WHEN WE START TO READ A BOOK, WE DONT USUALLY KNOW HOW IT ENDS.  ON MONDAY MORNING, WE CANNOT TELL ANYONE WHAT WILL HAPPEN ON FRIDAY AFTERNOON.  WE DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THE NEXT HOUR IS GOING TO BRING.  

ITS ALL ABOUT CHANGE.

MY LIFE DIDNT CHANGE OVER NIGHT.  IT WAS A GRADUAL PROGRESSION OF CHANGE.  LITTLE BY LITTLE, I BEGAN TO SEE THAT MY LIFE WAS NOT LEADING ME ANYWHERE, EXCEPT TO THE VERY PITS OF HELL.  WITHOUT REALLY NOTICING, MY SINFUL HABITS SLOWLY STARTED DRIFTING AWAY.  THE MORE I TURNED TO THE LORD AND CONCENTRATED ON HIM AND HIS BLESSINGS, THE MORE I BEGAN TO LOOSE MY SINFUL WAYS.  I STILL HAVE SIN, WE ALL DO, BUT TODAY, I KNOW HOW TO REPENT TO MY GOD WHO SERIOUSLY LISTENS AND GRANTS HIS UNENDING FORGIVENESS. 

THE WORD CHANGE HAS BEEN ON MY MIND ALL DAY TODAY.  AND NOT NECESSARILY IN A BAD WAY.  I REALIZE TODAY THAT GOD CONTINUOUSLY BRINGS CHANGE INTO OUR LIVES.  HE HAS A MASTER PLAN FOR EVERY SINGLE THING THAT HAPPENS.  WE USUALLY DO NOT KNOW THE ANSWER TO OUR PROBLEMS AND SOMETIMES WORRY ABOUT THE OUTCOME.  SOMEONE VERY CLOSE TO ME IS EXPERIENCING A CHANGE  IN HIS LIFE TODAY.  MY PRAYERS ARE WITH HIM AND I CANT HELP BUT THINK THAT IT  IS  GODS WAY OF INTRODUCING SOMETHING BETTER TO HIM.  OUR GOD IS A LOVING GOD WHO KNOWS WHAT IS BEST FOR US.  HE WANTS TO SEE US HAPPY AND AS LONG AS WE DO HIS WILL, HE PROMISES JOY UNSPEAKABLE. 

LIKE I SAID, THE CHANGE IN ME DID NOT HAPPEN OVER NIGHT.  I STILL HAVE ALOT OF CHANGING TO DO.  BUT, I HAVE LEARNED TO READ HIS WORD AND TO RELY UPON HIS PROMISES.  I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR THE CHANGES THAT ARE STILL PRESENTING THEMSELVES TO ME DAILY.  INSTEAD OF RUNNING MY MOUTH SO MUCH, I HAVE LEARNED TO LISTEN TO THAT QUIET LITTLE VOICE THAT I HEAR EVERY TIME I EVEN THINK ABOUT DOING WRONG. 

I WAS ONCE SO AFRAID OF CHANGE.  TODAY, I WELCOME CHANGE.  I AM EXCITED ABOUT CHANGE.  I KNOW THAT GOD WILL NOT TURN HIS BACK ON ME AS LONG AS I AM DOING HIS WILL.  HE WILL NOT LEAVE ME HANGING.  HE ONLY WANTS WHATS BEST FOR ME.  I REALIZE TODAY THAT IF HE BRINGS ME TO IT, HE WILL BRING ME THROUGH IT!  I WELCOME ANY CHANGE GOD BRINGS MY WAY. 

AND IF HE DOES IT FOR ME, HE CAN AND HE WILL SURELY DO IT FOR YOU.  MAN LETS US DOWN.  OUR GOD DOES NOT.   HE WILL NEVER LEAVE US OR FORSAKE US!

I HAVE ALOT TO THANK HIM FOR AT PRAYER MEETING TONIGHT AT 7.  I WANT TO THANK HIM AND PRAISE HIM FOR ALL THE CHANGES HE HAS BROUGHT INTO MY LIFE.  I LOVE MY GOD.  I AM ETERNALLY GRATEFUL FOR HIS FORGIVENESS, HIS GRACE, HIS MERCY AND HIS LOVE!
