Changes

Changes.

They happen.

They are often quite a lot of trouble.

Unless they are changes that I want. Then they are not only okay, they are welcome changes.

But the changes I don't want, the changes I didn't think I needed, the changes I have had forced upon me are tough to deal with, more because I don't want to than anything else.

Today has been a day when certain changes have been made necessary by incidents totally out of my control.

Things have happened today that have impacted me, Carey and others in ways that are so inconvenient you can't believe it and some of these things are going to take some time and money to fix.

Changes, especially unnecessary ones are trouble.

I'm so thankful that in the midst of these changes, these inconveniences, that I have a Rock to go to that reestablished stability in my world.

That Rock is my Jesus and right now, I'm holding on to Him with all the strength I can muster.

Let me suggest that when changes, trials, troubles or anything unpleasant gets in you way, go to the Only True Rock, the Only Safe Fortress that you have.

Don't let the vicissitudes of life defeat you. Hold fast to Jesus.

When you have been reconciled to Him, He has promised never to leave you or forsake you.

Take advantage of that great promise and find all the strength and stability you'll ever need.

Let Him hold you, strengthen you, undergird you in every way today.

And pray for revival. Oh, how we need Jesus!

In His Love
Walter
