Change —> there are many moments in life where this word can be very hard to grasp.
How do you embrace change when you are comfortable where you are? or too scared to take a risk on something new and unknown? … whether the change is good or bad.
Life is full of change (because) time never stops m.o.v.i.n.g.
Try to think about everything in your life that has happened up to this very moment that you are reading this… what comes to mind?
i remember learning how to tie my shoe for the first time. i remember my brother and two little sisters being born. i remember my step-dad yelling for some unknown reason…as usual. i remember picking on my siblings. i remember loving my siblings. i remember wishing i had someone to understand me. i remember friendships that have long since disappeared. i remember feeling like i was important because a ‘boy’ said he loved me. i remember the mistakes that i have made in my life. i remember pain and tears. i remember feeling the presence of Jesus for the first time in my life. i remember joy. i remember happiness. i remember a boldness that escaped from me … and that shy little girl was gone. i remember my insecurities. i remember thinking i was right.. and also knowing when i was right. i remember the smiles and voices of those that i loved.. and still do. i remember countless memories that would take far too long to write down.
the picture of life is messy. it is not perfect.
but between the lines of brokeness and pain —> there is hope.
.: [with that hope... we see change... and we begin to grow] :.
