The Art of Change

Regardless to how we fear change, and are so comfortable when things in our lives seems to mimic our perception of good living, we must not forget sometimes change is needed. Yes, I am surely one who knows I not good with change and if the truth be told, I dread change. Nevertheless, I realize that change is an art and if you embrace change as an artist...you will never go wrong.

I know you may be saying, "How the heck is change an art?" Let me explain. When we experience change, we must be molded in our minds, transformed in our thinking, uplifted in our heart, and sometimes even transfixed in faith. See works of art takes careful consideration, special attention, and creative minds....so does change. When God users change into our lives, He has taken careful consideration of our journey, He's paid special attention to our gifting(s), setbacks, sinfulness, and our purpose, and He uses His creative mind of His Spirit to help us get renewed minds. Can you see it now?

Sometimes it takes a lot to embrace change, but oftentimes in our hearts of hearts, if it were up to us, we would never reach forward to provoke change. How do I know? I'm in the biggest change of my life right now. I know I need to change for my health's sake but boy am I struggling. I am watching God change the painting of my life and I realize most of all He is the Master and I am His masterpiece!

YOU ARE TOO! I believe that's exactly why the scripture says, "All things work together for good to those who love God and are the called according to His purpose." (Romans 8:28) Nothing will ever happen to His masterpiece, that He is not able to fix; and sometimes with fixing comes changes. I pray this helps you to embrace the change or changes happening right now in your life. Be Blessed!
