Five Minute Friday: Same



Change is scary.  No one really cares for it. We fear it.

Change makes us uncomfortable by bringing the unknown, making us step out of our comfort zones.

But really, change can be good.

Is anything really meant to stay the same?

Babies grow and develop into toddlers. Eventually those little kid days turn into the teenage years. Then our children are adults and living on their own.

They changed. Didn't stay the same.

Sometimes its good not to stay the same.


As a Christ Follower, I should not stay the same. If I do, that means that I haven't grown in my relationship with Him. I haven't lived for Him.  I haven't given up my old ways for Him.  Part of being His is change, not being the same as I was.

I am starting to welcome some change.  There are things I don't want to stay the same.  I need growth. I need to experience the unknown. I need out of my comfort zone. Sometimes we need change.

Yet, sometimes we need things to stay the same.
