Take a moment to think of situations where change was difficult.  Why was that change difficult? Was it the unknown? Is it a lack of trust within ourselves to be able to handle change? No matter the reason there are often times where the fear of change prevents many from improving themselves. We should not be wary of accepting changes that could benefit us. There should be some confidence in ourselves when change is inevitable. We should trust ourselves to handle any situation because God will never put us through more than we can handle. Isaiah 41:10 says, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.”

I am always in deep thought about where I am and what changes need to be made moving forward. I do not want to change things that have helped with successes, but as time goes on I have become more open to making necessary changes that will help me grow in my faith. What changes do we need to implement to grow in our faith? Do we need to spend more time reading God’s Word? Do we need to invest more time in a ministry? No matter the area of focus, change can be good if it is applied appropriately. Let us not be afraid of change. Let us grow in our faith every day.
